You Sexy Lynx

The latest Lynx campaign involves angels falling from heaven. The marketing team liked the idea so much they decided to recreate the experience at London’s Victoria station earlier this month using augmented reality. In the live campaign a marker was placed on the floor telling people to look up. When a willing participant obliged they saw themselves on screen with a lovely angel. Many (and who wouldn’t) stopped to interact.

Hopefully the rest of the world doesn’t have to endure the annoyingly repetitive Go Compare advert that they insist on showing every 3 minutes here in the UK. I hope never to see an AR version of that one.
