If you’re a
football fan, it’s likely that hearing the official Champions League music (an original composition by Englishman Tony Britten if you’re
wondering) rouses something primal in you, unless of course you’re an
Arsenal fan and it will probably just rouse anger and disappointment.
Anyway I digress.
Combine this music with a Matrix-style motion capture bank of 40 12-megapixel
cameras and the result is you starring in your own mini-advert with the
Champions League Music blasting out behind you. All this is thanks to Ford
which is celebrating its 19th consecutive year as a Champions League sponsor. The
Ford FocusCam will be set up in Hyde Park from tomorrow, Saturday 21 May and
will allow members of the public to head in and capture themselves floating in mid air or volleying a ball into the back of the net.
The FocusCam exhibition stand will be in the north east corner of Hyde Park from tomorrow until just before the final between Manchester United and Barcelona next Saturday (opening times below). It’s all free and good fun, especially for children to head along and be the star of the show.
