Evan Photographed the VR portion of this amazing ad which aired at the end of Super Bowl LI.  This project was truly an incredible technical undertaking, which at its core, showed the power of how Virtual Reality can truly make the world a smaller place. 

By the way of Live Streaming 3 VR cameras from Super Bowl LI in Houston to a US Military base in Zagan Poland, the team were able to transport 3 service men and women to watch the Super Bowl with their families.  These video feeds were projected onto "360 Igloos." 

The team live-streamed, shot, and edited this spot delivering a national Super Bowl commercial by the end of the football game!
