Award: Shortlist
Shortlist / Branded Content & Entertainment / Next Creative / 2019
“Project Dead Zone,” presented by Xfinity, is the first live horror film directed by Twitter. Xfinity xFi Pods—small WiFi extenders—eliminated every WiFi dead zone in the largest haunted house in the US and enabled a live-streamed investigation of the home’s mysterious paranormal activity. Thousands of viewers on Twitter joined and began guiding a team of investigators through the home. But shortly after the event began, things took a horrifying turn: the house became possessed and trapped the team. Suddenly, the live stream, powered by xFi Pods, was the only way anyone was getting out.
