How three of the world's biggest names launched a product no one had words for yet, together.

The Brief

The ICC Immersive app on Apple Vision Pro was a first-of-its-kind launch for the T20 World Cup 2024, built by Quidich Innovation Labs in partnership with the ICC and Apple. A product that captured 2.2 million data points per match, mapped 60 stadiums to centimetre-level accuracy, and let a viewer stand in the batter's shoes during a live World Cup game. We were brought in to find the voice that could carry it. One that worked for all three stakeholders, for a global cricket audience, and for the genuinely extraordinary thing at the heart of the product.

A three-way launch that needed language as new as the thing itself.

Client

QUIDICH × ICC × APPLE

The Challenge

When the technology is genuinely first-of-its-kind, the language to describe it doesn't exist yet. Lean on tech jargon and the audience drops off in the first five seconds. Strip it back too far and you lose the credibility the technology actually deserves. Layered on top of that, three of the biggest names in the world were watching how the work got done, Quidich, the ICC, and Apple. The communication had to satisfy all three, land with a global cricket audience, and never lose the product at the centre of it. Most launches don't have to navigate one of those constraints. This had all four.

THE APPROACH

We started with the line. Bring the moment home. Four words that did the job a thousand-word product description couldn't, it captured what the technology actually did for a viewer, without naming a single feature. Cricket lives in moments. The ICC Immersive app let people own one. The tagline gave the launch a single emotional truth that every other piece of work could orbit.


From there, the two videos were calibrated to different jobs. The walkthrough gave depth, the detail a partner, an investor, or a serious tech journalist needed to take the product seriously. The brand film created desire. Less product demo, more invitation. Built to make a cricket fan feel something before they understood anything. Together, the two pieces gave the launch a complete communication system, one video for the head, one for the heart.

THE WORK

The full launch communication system for the ICC Immersive app on Apple Vision Pro. A tagline that anchored the campaign. A product walkthrough video for the audiences that needed depth. A brand film that lived on the official ICC channel during the T20 World Cup 2024. Social content to carry the message across cricket's biggest moment of the year.

THE OUTCOME

Millions of views across the globe. Genuine investor interest off the back of the launch. Positive sentiment for all three partners, Quidich, the ICC, and Apple, at a moment when every one of them was being watched closely.

For a launch involving three of the world's biggest names, it was the kind of debut that doesn't usually happen on the first try. For us, it was a reminder that the harder the technology, the simpler the language has to be. The work isn't to dazzle. It's to land.
