ILM’s StageCraft was instrumental in bringing Steven Spielberg’s Paris Olympic four minute film to life for NBC Universal, titled Land of Stories, it welcomed viewers to its presentation of the XXXIII Olympiad.
“Steven Spielberg is one of the world’s greatest storytellers,” said Molly Solomon, President and Executive Producer, NBC Olympics Production. “For decades we have been moved to experience the full range of human emotions through his fully immersive storytelling style. It was a thrill to see Steven so excited to speak about the magic of the Olympics – from the moments we all remember to the potential of the current athletes. It feels like the perfect prelude to the Paris Games.”
Shorter versions of “Land of Stories” will be used to promote NBCU’s coverage of the Opening Ceremony across its broadcast, cable, streaming, and social media platforms, as well as in AMC and IMAX theatres. A 60-second tease will debut on television during the Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks® Spectacular on NBC and Peacock.
