I wanted to portray the clydesdale as the spirit of the United States at its best.
It is the first time that we see the full power of an unbridled free clydesdale, running through iconic American landscapes and everyday American life. Its’ journey inspires the American reality, their hopes and dreams.
Cocktails in the Sky
︎ BACARDÍ/
We conceived and created the biggest cocktail mixer of the World for the World’s largest screen in 15K resolution. Almost half a kilometer, 1375 ft, screen covering the sky of five blocks of Downtown Las Vegas. Thirty-two vertical screens at eye level are synchronized with the main action of the dome to deliver an immersive experience for the audience. We specifically created this gigantic show for the Bacardí Spiced&Cola and Desert Mojito.

Life is Beautiful
For LifeIsBeautiful, we wanted to take the audience into a magical fluorescent journey in the desert surrounding the city of neon lights, Las Vegas. What if you could travel as electricity alongside electric volts? We transformed Fremont Street into a moving capsule. The half kilometer, 1375ft, screen would be the capsule's crystal dome looking at the neon sky, and the 32 screens at eye level were windows looking at the rocky ground level.
Through the Breaking Glass
A través del espejo
Three stars fall from the sky and transform into the pieces of a broken mirror. Alice, already a woman, awakens in a wonderful land. She doesn't remember either her name or how she got there, for that matter.
Each piece of broken glass hides a secret: a solitary and rainy alley, a little girl in a hospital, and a creature born from the darkness.
Alice will have to unveil the mystery of the broken glass before 6
o'clock, when terrible things are bound to occur…
Genre: Fantasy/Drama
Directed, Written, and Produced by Iván Mena-Tinoco.
