BRAND STRATEGY

Following a pitch win back in 2015, Biborg worked closely with the prestigious Opera National de Paris to put in place a new digital creative strategy, branding, positioning and identity of the company. Since then Biborg has been accompanying the Opera for the promotion and awareness of their performances and is the official digital agency for social content campaigns.

The image that the Opera National de Paris projected was the fact that the shows were seen as inaccessible. The positioning of this reputation was given a refresh in order to create a younger brand image, accessible to all.

Over the years Biborg have been contributing in making The Opera National de Paris radiate to a digitally connected audience.

Some of the campaigns created can be discovered below :

Trailer for the 19/20 season

Biborg created and produced an announcement video that presents the performances of the new season for the Opéra National de Paris. The concept was to dive audiences in a poetic landscape by combining scenery ambience with the stage - hence the title “La Scène et au-delà” / “The Stage and Beyond”. Biborg created 3D scenes based from 2D assets in order to create a seemingly natural depth. The video was presented on The Opera National de Paris social media channels as well as displayed on a large screen at the Opéra Bastille.
