This documentary covers the final months of development of the House of Barbie in Shanghai.

When Trendmaker, a leading Texas home builder, needed a builder themselves for technology components showcasing their new master-planned community, they called Six Foot to the job site. Six Foot created a captivating interactive experience to educate, entertain and promote the amenities and key features of the Trendmaker development community at Cross Creek Ranch in Fulshear, Texas.

Take a closer look at the Amenities exhibit in this demo.

News coverage of the grand opening of the House of Barbie.

Barbie is back in the spotlight, as she celebrates her 50th anniversary. In 2009, she is more than a doll; she’s an international phenomenon, and the star of multiple forms of media.

Six Foot is proud to have escorted Barbie into the interactive world with two custom experiences; one at FAO in New York, and another coming soon at the House of Barbie in Shanghai. ABC provides a glimpse of the New York experience in their report. Take a look.

Hero vs. villain is cool. We like that. We grew up with that. But, hero vs. hero, is the stuff of good, meaty storytelling. To give that justice on a website, isn’t automatic, and the Six Foot team spent a deal of time in the decision-making process to portray that character sublayer to the user.

In promotion of the film, Be Kind, Rewind, the Alamo Drafthouse in Houston hosted a contest for the best Sweded film. Drafthouse provided each participant two film titles to choose from. After a rigorous evening of development, this is the entry that won Six Foot the first place prize of Alamo Drafthouse gift cards and a stack of classic VHS tapes. Woo hoo!

The project has actually been pretty fun. We were unable to recreate the perfume smell, but we maintained our ability to shoot Nazis on a computer surrounded by stacks of Elle. Mission accomplished!

We’d be pleased if you checked it out. Thanks.
