Interactive brand tool

Splunk may not be a household name but within the area of network security and data resilience they lead the field. After being purchased by Cisco, the team over at Splunk wanted to craft an interactive piece that celebrated user interaction. It needed to be sharp, striking and fully optimised, whilst bringing branding into the real-time. The feel had to be naturally responsive, whilst being totally adaptable to new localisation requirements as a touring live branding tool.

The custom application first opened at AWS Re Invent, Las Vegas. RenderHeads then went on to update the application to create an off-line asset render pipeline. Allowing for custom content to be produced for Black Hat Las Vegas USA, and RSA Conference SF USA.
