Heineken recognised that football fans watch games with their phones in-hand. We wanted their other hand to be holding a Heineken. So we created a live experience for your phone that complemented the football.
Each week, on a sofa somewhere in the world, a champion footballer along with a host of Heineken "open your world" characters entertained fans throughout the game.
Star players commented on the game, and Heineken tweeted the comments along with interpretations in the form of 5 second films. These accompanying short films were created in real-time next to the player on the sofa on an iPhone 5s and published instantly.
