Water made active

To launch new Gatorade's new electrolyte water, we made it literally active. 

 

Gatorade believes that there are no shortcuts in sports and fitness. So we decided to take the same approach with our production. We developed a completely new technology capable of generating a visual and literal representation of an active water. The ingenious installation combines art, photography and science to synchronize tiny droplets of G Active so that together they form a character that jumps, runs and even kicks a punching bag. The end result is both stunning and quite poetic.
