Description

The client wanted to communicate the new Sony line up headphones in Argentina.

Agency was asked to think of a high-impact urban intervention.

First we developed the world's largest SONY headphone, and then we organized the first open silent fest and we named it SONY SILENT DAY.

During this time period the city government was planning to vote a law to forbid listening to music without headphones on public transport. We saw this as a great opportunity in achieving branding and headphones product promotion through our activation.
