MOTIONGATE™ Dubai has released its global television commercial (TVC) titled ’Where Movies Come To Life‘, building on nearly a decade of collaboration with 815 Studios.
Following the successful launch of 15 exhilarating coaster campaigns between 2016 and 2021, this film represents a significant milestone in their professional partnership.
Originally slated for release in 2020, the production faced unexpected delays due to the pandemic, temporarily putting 815’s creative ambitions on hold. However, as the world began to reopen, so too did aspirations behind the scenes.
Now, five years since the original script was penned — during which time the ideation evolved— ‘Where Movies Come To Life’ has finally come to fruition.
“After all the content pieces that we have produced for MOTIONGATE™ Dubai until now, it feels like we have been building to this release. It is a special one, and a true testament to our unwavering dedication and commitment to our clients,” said Thomas Mitchell, Producer, 815 Studios.
“At MOTIONGATE™️ Dubai, we’ve created more than just a theme park—it’s a place where stories from the movies we love come to life, where families can connect, relive their memories, and make new ones,” said Denis Pascal, General Manager of MOTIONGATE™️ Dubai.
Drawing inspiration from various Hollywood studio IPs, the film aims to encapsulate the cinematic magic that MOTIONGATE™ Dubai embodies, while showcasing its many enthralling experiences and tasty offerings across its theme park.
“As we continue to work alongside some of the finest marketing minds in the region, we intend to keep pushing the envelope through our creative storytelling and filmmaking methods,” said Director Guy Mannion.
‘Where Movies Come To Life‘ is now live across multiple platforms around the globe; including cinemas, airlines, and social media.
