SKY History Channel: Unforgotten Soldiers

The Unforgotten Soldiers was a tableau vivant installation that brought an old black and white World War One picture to life on the streets of Auckland. We turned a part of Lorne Street into a real life WWI trench, complete with authentic surround sound to take you back to 1915. The 8-hour performance brought to life a typical day in the trench and was all based on real NZ soldiers and their real stories. Everything looked just as it was 100 years ago, authentic army uniforms, weapons, food rations, were carefully crafted to recreate the effect of looking at an old 'black and white' picture, but in real life.Agency: DDB New Zealand
