Our Design Challenge was to create a “home” for the FIFA Men’s World Cup coverage that exudes the personality of modern Qatar while projecting to an American Audience an instant connection to the host country.
It took twelve students; two professors, ten weeks, and one concept to WOW Fox Sports.
This is the final sizzling REEL presented to FOX SPORT'S VP of design, throughout an immersive presentation of the virtual set that showcase the arabesque architectural elements and the scale of Fox Sports' new virtual set. The set includes a main broadcast desk, a transforming (sand, water, soccer pitch) demo area, an AR soccer ball, a couple waterfalls, an intimate interview lounge, a balcony to overview the set, and other elements.
