Foundry512 Partners with Foursquare to Deliver Jägermeister's Darke Spirit Web AR Experience

    AUSTIN, TX, October 31, 2019 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Austin-based Agency, Foundry512, today announced the launch of Jägermeister's Darke Spirit campaign. In partnership with Foursquare, the agency has created the brand's first interactive experience that blends augmented reality powered by 8th Wall technology and Amazon Sumerian. With the rich media units, banner ads, and social media creative/assets, Foundry512 created an enriched multi-faceted experience that encourages audiences to visit participating venues and interact with the iconic herbal liqueur in a highly immersive way. The campaign launched on September 1st and will run until November 1st. Learn more about the campaign at https://jagermeister.com/en-US/darke-spirit.

Foursquare, the leading provider of location data, relied on Foundry512 to concept and develop creative and technology to deliver an enriching brand experience for fans. F512 is thrilled about this partnership and hopes to show how digital campaigns powered by web AR and Foursquare's location data can produce powerfully unique experiences.

The Darke Spirit campaign invites audiences to be playful at a festive time of year. Users will be prompted to visit participating locations and interact with the AR experience via location-based ads and POS collateral. Those who follow the prompts will receive another prompt to visit Jägermeister spirits once they are inside a participating location.

Aaron Henry, Foundry512 Founder and President, had this to say about this new venture:

"Jägermeister truly understands the importance of delivering exceptional content that translates into growth and brand loyalty. When Foursquare approached us to create the Darke Spirit campaign, we immediately knew it was going to evolve into a highly engaging and rich experience we know users will enjoy. We had a great time collaborating with Wulf Arts on this fun project and can't wait to see the campaign flourish."
