#CannesLions2016: Entertainment Lions winners!
The Grand Prix award went to VRSE.Works LA for their 'The Displaced' work for client New York Times' NYT VR in the Innovation in Visual Storytelling and Branded Entertainment category.
This virtual reality experience, from Vrse.works was honoured by the jury for its experiential power, placing viewers directly inside the global refugee crisis and signalling VR’s arrival into the mainstream. Jury President, Jae Goodman, Chief Creative Officer & Co-Head of CAA Marketing, said, “ The New York Times embarked on The Displaced as far more than an extension of their editorial platform, and in doing so they have catapulted their brand forward. To our jury, that made it worthy of the first-ever Entertainment Lions Grand Prix.”
It's a virtual reality video that tells the story of three children displaced from their homes by war.
