Marking a significant milestone, the debut commercial production was in partnership with Big Sky Studios and the launch of their new innovative multimedia and virtual production studio. The enchanting campaign was captured against a 9m by 3.5m high res ROE Ruby LED screen, setting the stage for a series of six captivating wonderlands tailored to each of the unique personalities of the featured talent.

Roger Cummings, Managing Director at Big Sky says, “Big Sky Studios were thrilled to support Kode, 20Something and Debenhams.com on their Wonderland is Waiting campaign. It is the perfect showcase for the launch of our new innovative multimedia and virtual production studio on Brewery Road London, which is in partnership with Pixl Evolution, a leading provider of bespoke production technology globally."

The intricate production design played a pivotal role in bridging the gap between the mystical LED universe and the real world, delivering an awe-inspiring visual spectacle that was meticulously crafted by a dedicated freelance team within a condensed time frame.

Jack Goodwin, Executive Producer at Kode says, “It’s been a real joy to be involved with creating this year’s Christmas campaign for Debenhams.com. We had a lot of fun bringing together the bespoke 3D environments and foreground production design elements, shooting all six spots in one day, with thanks to an incredible team. An all hands on deck, ambitious project from start to finish, with results we’re super proud of."
