OBJECTIVE

Transport Western audiences to experience a controversial pastime that has been part of the cultural landscape of Latin America and Asia for centuries.

PUTTING THE PUZZLE TOGETHER

Buy beers for everyone at the arena. Schmooze the trainers and make sure the camera isn’t in the way of the birds.

FINAL PRODUCT

Sunday Fight is an immersive 360/VR video that takes you inside a Nicaraguan cockfight ring.
