The PopupView trails are a fun day out exploring towns and cities using the PopupView app to find 3D digital artworks. Visitors download the app and follow the map to find and reveal artworks and other 3D digital assets using ‘trigger images’ located at different venues across the city.
By hosting images for the trail, venues can take advantage of the PR generated by the experience, increased footfall to their premises, social media buzz about the experience whilst also raising awareness about the value and beauty of nature.
Package for venues
Organisers of the trail can generate an income by offering a 12 month package for venues to participate in the experience.
The offer would include:
- Consultancy on how and where to place the trigger image on venue premises to maximise conversion of footfall to paying customer
- Selection from a collection of beautiful photographs / artworks to display or project onto walls at the venue
- Insight into how augmented reality apps work
- Inclusion on a city map and list of participating venues
- Brand association with important themes of sustainability, cultural capital, ecological awareness and civic engagement
- Promotions about the experience and associated venues through a PR agency
- Social media buzz including photos and tagging of venue names
- Invitation to launch event
- Option to offer associated virtual reality workshops as part of the experience
- Aggregated analytics on user movement and engagement with the app in venues and across the city
