Live viral campaign for Skype

This project made some highly specialist demands on us. 24/7 video uplink to a website, plus a genuine call box in the middle of nowhere, where the actor could sit and answer Skype phone calls all day long for ten days! Thanks to a mate who just happened to own and run an internet phone and web service with transmitters across several mountains, we were able to supply uplink and a full telephone service. We brought in art department, camper van, and kept the production supplied and serviced for the full duration. A unique location job!

Improvisation at its finest.
