Playstation Fiesta Bowl and the Cactus Bowl #41 BEST INDIVIDUAL SPONSOR FOLLOW UP REPORT ifea submission 2018 41) BEST INDIVIDUAL SPONSOR FOLLOW-UP REPORT Overview Information Introduction and Description of Main Event The first Fiesta Bowl game was played in 1971 after much effort from a group of nine visionary business leaders who worked tirelessly to bring a post-season college football game to the state of Arizona. Since that time, the Fiesta Bowl organization has grown into much more than just one game. The Fiesta Bowl’s vision is to be a world-class community organization that executes innovative experiences, drives economic growth and champions charitable causes, inspiring pride in all Arizonans. As a nonprofit organization, we believe in the importance of fostering a culture of community outreach and service. Based in Scottsdale, the Fiesta Bowl hosts a variety of local events each year, as well as two elite bowl games – the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl and the Cactus Bowl. Together, these two events generate $170 million in economic impact for the State of Arizona.* In 2014, the Fiesta Bowl became a part of the College Football Playoff along with five other storied Bowl Games, collectively “The New Year’s Six.” Each season, the Fiesta Bowl matchup is determined by an independent selection committee tasked with ranking the top 25 teams in the nation, placing the top four teams in designated Semifinal games and the remaining eight teams in the “Host Bowls.” The Fiesta Bowl is a College Football Playoff Semifinal game every three years, beginning in 2016 and again in 2019. The Fiesta Bowl is played at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona with a stadium capacity of 68,000+. Access to a pregame Fan Fest held outside of the stadium is included with all tickets and for an additional cost, fans may attend the VIP pregame party, “Stadium Club.” The 2017 game took place on Saturday, December 30 and featured a matchup between Penn State University and University of Washington in front of a crowd of 61,842 fans. * Economic Impact Study conducted in 2015-16 by Arizona State University W.P. Carey School of Business and Seidman Research Institute. Name of Sponsor: Sony PlayStation Recognized as a global leader in interactive and digital entertainment, PlayStation is a division of Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE). The first PlayStation was launched in Japan in 1994 and today is in its fourth generation, the PS4. The PlayStation family of products and services now includes PlayStation gaming consoles, virtual reality, the PlayStation Store, PlayStation Vue streaming services and several popular games created for the PlayStation platform. Headquartered in San Mateo, California, SIE is a wholly- owned subsidiary of Sony Corporation and has regional headquarters in London and Tokyo. Introduction and Effectiveness of Sponsor Follow-up Report PlayStation became the title sponsor of the Fiesta Bowl game in 2016 with a two-year contract that extended throughout this past football season. In year one, PlayStation utilized the partnership primarily to promote brand messaging with a focus on hardware products. Specific goals included increasing brand awareness with college football fans, interaction with students and college football fans, creating opportunities to generate media exposure and entertaining clients and staff. In year 2, PlayStation’s goals were to enhance exposure from last year in key areas (team hospitality suites, Fan Fest Gaming Truck, signage), create more consumer engagement experiences, and incorporate their gaming characters. Based on these goals, this year’s partnership focused on three key pillars: gaming experiences at various locations, in-game product giveaways, and gaming character presence throughout game week. PlayStation added more consoles, VRs, interactive gaming and better furniture at both hospitality suites and media day. To better engage consumers, PlayStation decided to utilize it’s :30 in-game promos to give away products. Two entire sections won a $20 PlayStation store gift card. One entire row was gifted a PlayStation 4 console and another row was gifted a Virtual Reality headset. To help promote their current and upcoming games, PlayStation incorporated their gaming character mascots throughout the game week. These characters played an instrumental role at each team outreach event. To cap off the gaming character presence, the two God of War characters were on-field as the two opposing team bands performed the God of War theme song, promoting the game with a release date of April. Having a professional follow-up presentation for PlayStation was important for several reasons. PlayStation has numerous requests for sponsorship and marketing dollars so it was essential for us to show a positive return on investment. Being year 2 of the partnership with a potential renewal coming up, it was important for us to show we helped them accomplish their goals while over delivering throughout the partnership. Follow-up reports have become an important tool not only in communicating with our corporate partners, but also internally as a historical reference and audit of our capabilities and ability to deliver results. Since we began generating comprehensive recap reports three years ago, multiple departments have referred back to the data at various times during the year to verify performance and operations. The Corporate Partnerships staff utilizes the data in creating new business proposals and activation summaries for existing partners, the graphics department will refer back to signage and logo samples, and the events staff will verify attendance and site set-up. This report will serve as an important tool as we expand on the sponsorship for this year’s upcoming game and allow us to compare results for better insights.

  • The History of Video Games
    The history of video games • Introduction • Arcades • Nintendo • Sega • Sony • Microsoft • PC • Conclusion • Bibliography We are going to talk about the most known gaming systems up until now. We are also going to talk about the major console-producing companies, one by one. Arcade games are coin-operated machines, usually installed in public businesses, such as restaurants. They were most popular from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s. Even though they lost popularity in the western market, they still continue strong in Asian territory such as Japan. Arcades were home to great games like: Mortal Kombat Pac-man And Donkey Kong This is one of the most well-known and prominent video game companies of all time. Although they didn’t start out with video games they had great sucess with the Nintendo Entertainment System and it’s sucessor.Until now they have released the N64, the Gamecube, the Wii and Wii U. They also released various mobile consoles like the Gameboy, Ds, 3Ds and their variants. Nintendo owns great franchises like: Mario Legend of Zelda Metroid And Pokémon SEGA is also a very important company, being the competitor of Nintendo during the 1980s. They achieved this with Sonic, the companie’s mascot. He was a platformer like Nintendo’s Mario, but instead of being an italian plumber he was a fast and “hip” blue hedgehog. In 2001, the Dreamcast (their latest console) failed and forced the company into going third-party. This means they started making games for other consoles instead of their own. They have many iconic franchises like: Crazy Taxi Sonic the Hedgehog And Super Monkey Ball As you know Sony doesn’t only produce games, but they are “big dogs” in the gaming industry.

  • A Structural Approach to God of War, a Video Game by Santa Monica
    International Journal on Studies in English Language and Literature (IJSELL) Volume 3, Issue 7, July 2015, PP 5-15 ISSN 2347-3126 (Print) & ISSN 2347-3134 (Online) www.arcjournals.org A Structural Approach to God of War, a Video Game by Santa Monica Eyvazi, Mojgan Assistant professor, English Department Payame Noor University, Tehran. Iran [email protected] Alaeddini, Mohammad Ali Nickfam, Ramtin Assistant professor, English Department M.A. in English literature Payame Noor University, Tehran. Iran Payame Noor University. Tehran. Iran [email protected] [email protected] Abstract: Every literary narrative (or any form of art) follows some rules or structures that beside its mode of narration are common in all literary forms. In this research, it has been tried to demonstrate another mode of narration and depicting theories of Northrop Frye and Vladimir Propp’s structuralism in a video game named God of War. In this regard, after a very short introduction on structural school, and a short explanation on each of these theories, those structures will be represented in the video game. Frye’s notion of genre analysis will be applied on GOW with a summarized introduction; and then for structure of narrative present study uses Propp’s category of structures. His theory does not include only the narratemes in the story, but in fact beside 31 narratemes, there are still five categories of elements, plus seven character types. The result clearly indicated that video games have the capacity to be analyzed from structural point of view and also these structures were common on genre, characters and elements, too.

  • Reaching New Heights in Large Screen Displays Introducing Jumbotron
    JTS-L15 Jumbotron LED Large Sreen Display System Reaching new heights in large screen displays Introducing JumboTron this is not a rehearsal. www.isi-visual.com Captivate your audience with the world’s brightest and biggest screen It’s getting harder to impress today’s paying customers. In sports stadia, music concerts, and conference halls around the world, people are expecting more from large screen displays. Intense vivid colours, razor sharp lines and top- quality resolution are increasingly a must. They also want screens that can be seen from extreme angles, even in daylight. Anything less will cause disappointment and fewer sales. On top of this, the screens must be highly reliable, easy to install and easy to maintain. They must fit in precisely with the surrounding architecture. And they must be capable of accepting a wide range of signal inputs. Fortunately, Sony has the answer, with its pioneering LED technology and advanced JumboTron range of large screen displays. With the new LED JumboTron JTS-L30, Sony provides complete, customised systems to meet the needs of any installation, even those not previously possible because of weight and space limitations. The lightweight, thin design of the JTS-L15 makes it the ideal choice for billboard and advertising applications. With outstanding picture reproduction and uniformity, you can captivate your audience at sports arenas, auditoriums, convention centres, and many other locations.

Music within a computer or video game is often used for CUES (knowing when a significant event was about to Bass Clef occur). Video game music is often heard over a game’s title screen (called the GROUND THEME), options menu and bonus content as well as during the entire gameplay. Music can be used to INCREASE TENSION AND SUSPENSE e.g. during battles and chases, when the player must make a decision within the game (a DECISION MOTIF) and can change, depending on a player’s actions or situation e.g. indicating missing actions or “pick-ups”. The structure of the Major scale Music can be used as cues to highlight different points in the game for example a change in worlds and homelands like in Spyro or a change in circumstance for example when a player gets a power up in Crash Team Racing.
