U23D: March 2008 Archives

We couldn’t think of a better way to welcome Spring than to participate in the second annual Sunday Source Peeps Diorama Contest.

Members of National Geographic’s communication team, Ann Barrett, Kate Baylor, Heather Cabral, Ethan Fried, and Stephanie Montgomery set out to create an eye-catching “U2 3D“-themed diorama. They ended up creating a rainbow-colored marshmallow wonderland complete with U2 band peeps and a packed movie theater with rabid peep fans. No details were spared; band members were carefully crafted including a Bono peep with trademark sunglasses and an Edge peep rocking a knit, or in this case, felt hat.

The diorama was nominated as a finalist and that’s pretty peepin’ sweet! Congrats to all!

Hey everybody!  Are you ready to rock some specially made U2 3D wares? Exclusive to U2.com, the t-shirts are 100% cotton designed with the U2 3D logo on the front and the four silhouette images of the band on the back. This is for all the fans who have reached out to let us know how much you've enjoyed the film... now you can wear your support!!

As seen in U2 3D and on U2’s 2005 Vertigo tour, the beating heart animation by director, artist, and designer Juan Delcan (with original programming by Digital: CC) is now available as a screen saver in the downloads section for both the PC and Mac. Feel free to download it and pass it on!
