Disney Playmation
_________

Playmation is a high-tech play system that puts kids at the center of their favorite Disney stories. This new platform of toys will span across multiple Disney properties for years to come. The first iteration features Marvel’s Avengers, with Star Wars to be released at some time next year. To launch the Playmation brand - Disney’s first foray into the category, we created a campaign that illustrates the magic that can happen when you step into the world of your imagination.

To drive awareness and further explain the platform, we launched Playmation.com. This site is intended for parents to better understand the Playmation universe, and the product promise from a brand level. We launched a separate website for kids to drive pre-orders of the first iteration of Playmation Avengers, from a more in-depth narrative approach.
