Intel produced the first, live VR broadcast of the Olympic Winter Games. Leading up to the Olympics, we created a teaser campaign inspiring people to grab a headset and download the NBC Sports VR App—and experience the Olympics in virtual reality.

 
 

Opening Ceremony TV spot: One Moment

One of the most-watched TV spots in the world in 2018. For the opening ceremony, more than 1,200 drones soared in the shape of a snowboarder, a dove and the Olympic rings, breaking a world record. Intel, who's behind this magnificent moment, need to take credit. This contextual spot ran right after the reveal of the rings during the ceremony.
