Paris based Hellohikimori was selected by Orange Cinema Series to drive all digital activity for The Walking Dead launch. The series enjoyed immediate success in the US, attracting an audience of 5.3 million in its first season. Hellohikimori created a website matching the high production values of the epic zombie nightmare adventure. All content is accessible via the homepage, making for an easy no-click-through experience enabling the audience to fully immerse themselves in the gruesome, highly-charged atmosphere of the series, where usability, simple navigation and vertical composition allow for maximum grisly impact.
Centre-piece of The Walking Dead website is the interactive game, also created in flash and 3D by Hellohikimori.
The West Lobby is a kinetic space, centered around 8 giant central columns wrapped with mirrors and LCD screens. Rockwell Group’s LAB installed 384 displays on the columns and 26 behind the registration desk to create a platform for a variety of customized immersive digital experiences in the space. Off this lobby is the dream-like Vesper bar with a ceiling covered in metal mesh to look like a cloud, and shimmering silvers and whites throughout the space.
The LAB is Rockwell Group’s digital interaction design team. The ambition of the LAB is to explore, experiment, and demonstrate interactive experience augmented with digital technology in objects, environments and stories. And they have done some might impressive works including this project too.

Here’s an excerpt from Jonathan’s take on the new site: “The practical side of me loves the Reels feature, which allows anyone to collect our work, build reels with different themes, and share them via email and other social media streams. The more playful side of me loves the ‘Bits,’ which allows us to put bits of inspiration or artwork we’ve made on the shelves for everyone to see. This feature is already inspiring us in new ways, and proving to be a very fun way to get to know more about our people.”

Crazy site for artist Ana Somnia … “A whole world waits for you when you turn out the lights. In our dreams, lie childish figures, random shapes and half remembered memories. Each one is different yet somehow the same. Ana Somnia is a generative art project that emulates how we dream. Dim your lights to enter Ana’s dreamworld.” … an never ending dreamscape.
