Retail Marriage Sony Style And Comcast Labs

Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief

Comcast Cable and Sony Electronics inaugurated a partnership last week with a 3,400-square-foot retail experience in the lower-level concourse of Comcast’s downtown Philadelphia headquarters.

comcast-labs Tronic produced three product spots, which play across numerous screens in the retail showcase, to explain the marriage of Sony hardware and Comcast cable, phone and internet services.

For Tronic, the project marks a continuation of its move into OOH, high-end HD retail content.

Vivian Rosenthal, Tronic Studio’s executive producer told us “The challenge was to link two distinct companies together in a coherent voice. The Sony Comcast co-branding spot has the feeling of a trailer for a feature film that brings the brands together in an uplifting, aspirational way that captures one’s imagination and hits at the converging technologies they offer.”
