OVERVIEW
Small Axe, the British anthology series that was created and directed by Golden Globe winning filmmaker Steve McQueen, was released and streamed to the US on Amazon Prime Video. To help promote and increase buzz around the series on launch day, Amazon and Crown & Conquer turned to Telescope for an all-in-one unique destination hub featuring Small Axe and variety of digital content surrounding the film utilizing our immersive Virtual Event Hub product. Navigating this multi-page hub, film buffs everywhere indulged in on-demand video contents and multitude of digital content including articles, allowing users to dive deep and get informed on all things Small Axe and its ode to Black joy, resilience, and culture.
HOW IT WORKED
Once users entered this deeply engaging hub, they were presented with the 'Home' page that gave them a brief introduction to Small Axe along with the official trailer video for the film series. By clicking on the 'Videos' page via top navigation bar, users had the ability to watch two videos that were produced and edited by Telescope. The first being a cooking segment featuring Chef Nyesha Arrington in which she walks through West Indian cuisine and another of a panel engaging in topics of the Black experience and the resiliency that has defined generations of bravery and persistence. A downloadable pdf to Chef Nyesha's recipe was linked and the panelists' image as well as bio were displayed below the video to give users further insight.
The 'Digital Zine' page presented users with the "Small Axe Anthology Zine", a dynamic digital piece of content in which users were able to download and read. Furthermore, 14 articles and recipes were laid out below allowing users to freely click through and read as they pleased.
