The Remember Me Journal is a transmedia prequel to Capcom and DONTNOD Entertainment’s 2013 game release, Remember Me. The journal is an expansive, interactive, digital journal that tells the life story of Antoine Cartier-Wells, founder of the Memorize corporation and creator of the corrupted Sensen memory technology that features at the heart of the Remember Me game. The journal is a rich storytelling experience combining video, orchestrated music and ambient sound, still images, Facebook Connect integration, and interactive mini games to bring the lore of the game to life.

 

Capcom approached Bigballs, the digital film agency with a brief to promote an upcoming release, Remember Me, set in a believable near future where memory, intimacy and privacy has been eroded by social technology. Bigballs brought Tokyo Digital in to help create this prequel experience to the game and build a lifetime of memories for Antoine. 

A year after launch, Antoine’s Journal had been viewed over 500,000 times on a variety of devices. Users spent an average of 15 minutes interacting with the site.
