Uncovered Rome - Digital storytelling for Italian cultural heritage
Client: Ministry of Culture / Special Superintendence of Archaeology Fine Arts and Landscape of Rome
Uncovered Rome is an editorial and audiovisual platform developed for the Ministry of Culture and the Special Superintendence of Archaeology Fine Arts and Landscape of Rome. The project transforms cultural dissemination into an immersive, cinematic and contemporary digital experience.
Cultural institutions need contemporary languages to reach digital audiences. The traditional institutional website could not convey the emotional and visual impact of the audiovisual project.
