J.K. Rowling

Basically J.K. Rowling announced news of the future of the Harry Potter fanchise recently. This being a digital platform called Pottermore, created by TH_NK. Adam & Eve asked Pirata to help them with the campaign launch. This involved a YouTube based announcement, a Google Street view mash-up to reveal the name, a countdown, owls gathering in banners, and a huge 40ft by 35ft video in Times Sq, New York.
This campaign involved help from our friends Capture. They created the gorgeous 3D owls.
