Overview
Innovative 3D player scanning engages millions of fans for the UEFA Champions League final
Fanview and our technology partner Repronauts were commissioned by UEFA to create photo realistic models of the UEFA Champions League finalists, Liverpool and Real Madrid.
Our team travelled to the Liverpool’s Melwood training facility in the North West of England to scan manager Jurgen Klopp and the entire 25 man squad. From Melwood the team travelled to Real Madrid City to scan the squad.
The 3D player model assets were shared with UEFA’s broadcast partners right across the globe. They were also used by the Federation’s editorial team for distribution on a range of digital and social channels. The use of the models for team line-ups and head to head graphics on UEFA’s Instagram page generated the highest levels of engagement of any pre-Champions League final content.
