Xbox One S
Revealing the Xbox One S
We kicked off the Xbox 2016 E3 Press Briefing with the announcement video for their newest console, the Xbox One S. The latest (smaller) addition to the Xbox Family.
This is the second year we’ve created content and opened for Xbox’s E3 show, so we understand the importance of creating a huge impact at the most important gaming event of the year. A product launch of this scale and significance for the brand, involves a clear understanding of its users, alignment of all the teams involved, and an idea that communicates the key features that define the Xbox One S.
Over several weeks leading up to E3, I lead the team at Blind, worked seamlessly with our partners at Ayzenberg, and collaborated with the marketing and product ID teams at Microsoft Xbox. Together, we crafted a video that captured the elegance of the newly designed console and the robust features that make it an Xbox. Simply stated, “White is the new black. Smaller is better.”
The response from the live audience and the online community was amazing. Within the first few hours of it’s release, the video had tens of thousands of shares and likes, over a million views, and was covered by every major gaming and electronics blog. We’re so ecstatic that we could help the Xbox One S make such a huge splash at this year’s E3.
