ZDF documentary – Avatar protects. 6 million watch.

Challenge

Representing past events in a documentary style – without real actors and real locations, and without compromising the identity of the central source (an ex-neo-Nazi). At the same time, the format needed to reach a young target audience that barely uses traditional documentary formats anymore.

What we did

What we did

We developed a cost-effective 3D implementation that visually presents historical events in a believable and exciting way without real actors. The technology made it possible to fully preserve the anonymity of the source while creating a viewing experience that resonates with the gaming aesthetic of a young target audience.

  • Over 6 million views in the ZDF Mediathek

  • Positive feedback from a young, new target audience

  • Identity of the source protected throughout
