Amazon Prime Video Emmy's FYC House

Company/Agency: Giant Spoon

Amazon Prime’s FYC House returned in 2022, held at a private mansion in L.A. This tea room is one main section of the overall activation, named “The Studio”, and is themed on the Amazon Prime mini-series A Very British Scandal. With the series based on the tumultuous marriage of the Duke & Duchess of Argyle in the UK during 1960s, and the secrets written in the Duchess’ diary, the call to action for guests was to snoop around and find “easter eggs” related to the scandal.
