Filosofia | London based production studio KODE and creative studio 20something unveil their latest collaboration for EA SPORTS to celebrate the 14th birthday of FIFA Ultimate Team (FUT). A natural extension of their creative relationship, the newest collaboration from the production powerhouse and innovative creative studio is a wonderfully absurd intersection of sport, gaming, and comedy. Tasked with celebrating one of the most popular game modes within EA SPORTS FIFA 23, KODE and 20something joined forces to create a fictional confidential and ‘utterly secretive’ department of EA, BIRGFUT (Bureau of Independent Revelry and Gatherings for Ultimate Team), where haphazard but loyal scientists dedicate themselves to engineering the perfect birthday party for FIFA Ultimate Team. One of several films KODE has made with EA SPORTS over the past three years, the latest spot is a playful mockumentary style film that offers an insight into the secret BIRGFUT labs, where the scientists have prepared a handy and wonderfully awkward orientation video. Rooted in dry comedy, scientific satire and rich with references to EA SPORTS FIFA & football culture, KODE and 20something were keen to engage the loyal FIFA Ultimate Team community and build a creative ideation that would appeal to them. Packed with Easter Eggs galore for the most eagle-eyed EA SPORTS FIFA fans and a surprise cameo from Portuguese footballer João Félix, the memorable film is a celebration of EA SPORTS FIFA culture and a striking result of the power of collaboration between the EA SPORTSin-house team, 20something and KODE. Directed by Harry Cauty, the film meticulously unlocks the secrets behind preparation for FUT Birthday, whilst remaining true to references EA SPORTS FIFA fans know and recognise. With comedy at its heart, the film astutely navigates the balance between comedic performances and low-budget corporate onboarding video which inspired the creative concept. Lead actor, Stuart Benson, heads-up the group of misfit scientists, accompanied by a supporting cast which helped to bring the BIRGFUT world to life. |
