CREATE YOUR OWN MUSIC MONTAGE WITH MERCEDES-BENZ

Users can create their own music blend mix using the Mercedes-Benz cross-device online ‘mash-up’ tool.

Visitors to “Sound with Power” can mix various sounds, music and video featuring Mercedes AMG sound, Tinie Tempah & Sub Focus plus other. People can share their mix on social networks and selected mixes will air on TV.

The interactive website was created by AMV BBDO and B-Reel.

“We were acutely aware of the many challenges and limitations working with multiple videos and audio on mobile platforms, so we set to work on finding a compelling solution to achieve the same experience across all devices,” says B-Reel.

“We have developed a bespoke nodeJS-based system to convert the video into a format which allows us to dynamically playback multiple video clips on the site, across platforms, and at a number of different sizes and qualities depending on the viewers hardware and browser. These are also frame-synchronised to the audio. All of this means we can deliver a perfectly synced and fluid journey for the viewer throughout the experience.”

B-Reel worked with Ithaca Audio to create an eclectic library of sound and video loops - ranging from sounds drawn directly via the car to recognised samples including Tinie Tempah and the children’s classic, Stingray!

“We've also created multiple dynamic layouts to frame the audience's chosen clips helping them build amazing dynamic video and sound collages.”
