In partnership with the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism, Argus came to us looking for a way to share snapshots of some of the state’s beautiful landscapes within the evolving digital world to engage with a broader audience as a part of the department’s "Take a Moment" campaign. We developed two AR filters that highlighted six popular travel destinations in Massachusetts, which were accompanied with ambient soundscapes to immerse users in the experience and step away from their day-to-day world to enjoy a moment learning more about a few of the state’s favorite get-away spots. The AR filters were launched as part of a broader Times Square billboard campaign, enticing citygoers to experience the sights + sounds of beautiful Massachusetts while physically standing in the busiest part of New York City.
