Description
The Olympic games was set to be the biggest moment in the nations’ sporting history and our objective was to ensure audiences appreciated the value that the BBC brought to this momentous occasion through its coverage of the Games across TV, radio, online, mobile, red button and HD, demonstrating its innovative approach to pan-media coverage.

We aimed to showcase the innovative multi-channel accessibility of the Olympics coverage and firmly establish the BBC as ‘THE Olympic broadcaster’, by focussing on the insight that the BBC made the Olympics a truly inclusive experience, ticket or no ticket, because with the BBC ‘You’re all invited’ wherever you are in the UK.

We created a cutting-edge 3D animation, directed by Pete Candeland and scored by Elbow to showcase modern Britain. We took the Olympic sports out to the far reaches of the UK to demonstrate that wherever you were in the UK, the BBC gave you a front row seat to the Olympics.
