THE CHALLENGE

Audi came to TIME for help in telling their story and to help communicate the raw ambition of the Sphere concept project. Made up of three different models, the Sphere project imagined a world where a car is not just a machine to get you from A to B.

THE APPROACH

We told this story over six episodes of premium content, starting with a collection of 'tap-to-advance' digital experiences, told using a bespoke proprietary engine built specifically for this project. We also created two films, shot in Mexico City and Germany.

THE RESULT

The Sphere concepts are Audi's vision vision of what transport looks like in the future. The series became the most successful branded content series TIME has ever produced, performing 184% against goals and 7.4 Million video views.
