ClientBriefOrObjective

In 2010, TRON: Legacy returned to San Diego’s world famous Comic Con with simple goal - to be the most buzzed about film at the world’s largest comic book and pop-culture convention by allowing the attendees to actually be in the world created by the new movie.

Effectiveness

Over 3 days, 7,000 people in San Diego experienced the END OF LINE CLUB.9,000 online, print and broadcast press stories captured the event, generating 700 million impressions.Over 5 million people following the Tron: Legacy campaign for over a year and a half in over 50 countries.

Implementation

The concept of promotion was to allow Tron fans to walk in the footsteps of the film's hero, Sam Flynn, and experience "life on the grid".Using viral sites, social media, and a real world scavenger hunt in San Diego, thousands of Tron fans were led through 3 real world re-creations from the film: Flynn's Arcade, Flynn's secret lab, and the END OF LINE CLUB - a fully immersive set from the Tron: Legacy film that took over two weeks to create.Fans were able to mingle with fictional characters and be fully integrated into the Tron Legacy world.

Relevancy

The END OF LINE CLUB event was strategically staged during Comic Con, the world's largest comic book and pop culture convention held in San Diego and attended by 300,000 fans and entertainment press.The END OF THE LINE CLUB was reproduced in exact scale as the scene in the new film, featuring digital windows that allowed Tron fans to experience the world of TRON: Legacy first hand, as if they themselves were a character in the movie. The END OF LINE CLUB was also used as an exclusive party for Comic Con VIPs and press.
