Context
HBO Max’s UEFA Champions League campaign was built around “Impossível não ver” a Portuguese line that plays on both watching and picturing the action.
Creative move
We brought the tagline to life by transforming André’s iconic calls into a visual system for digital OOH. Through bold typography, scale and motion, fans could picture the action without seeing a single frame of the match.
Impact
The campaign brought HBO Max’s coverage to the streets and proved that when André Henning calls the action, UEFA Champions League becomes impossible not to "see".
“Rodrygo! Rodrygo again! Look at that thunderbolt!” captures the intensity of a back-to-back goal call.
“Cristiano with the bicycle kick. Oh my! Oh my!”
“The body doesn’t answer to the brain, but to the heart.”
“The impossible has happened. Oh my God!”
