AEG GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS · THE SPOTLIGHTRITUALADS · A CREATIVE PROPOSAL

Quickly show partners what their sponsorship could look like.

Turn a sponsorship brief into visuals your creative team can refine and use in a partner pitch. Explore examples across Crypto.com Arena, the LA Kings and L.A. LIVE.

Everything on this page is a proposed concept, made by RitualAds as a demonstration. On this page: one activation explained from start to finish, a creative note and the version that answers it, the pitch materials your salesperson gets, the same workflow at your other properties, how it runs and the pilot we propose.

One activation from start to finish: a partner stage in front of the Peacock Theater.

This is what AEG could sell, shown without sound: a stage on the L.A. LIVE plaza for the partner, and the partner’s mark on the band above the theater’s doors and on the mast screen for the event window. Every step is on this page, from the photograph the concept started with to the components AEG could sell. It is a proposed concept, not an approved activation, and SEGA was not involved.

1The source photograph.

The concept starts from a photograph of the front of the Peacock Theater at L.A. LIVE, taken in February 2026. It gives the layout: the glass facade, the theater’s name, the band above the doors, the mast with its screen, the trees and the queue at the doors. The show advertised on the band and on the tower screen that night is not part of the concept. In a pilot, this step starts from AEG’s own photography instead.

2The proposed installation.

The same front of the theater at the same hour. SEGA, which public sources identify as an official partner of L.A. LIVE, is on the band above the doors and on the mast’s screen, and a play stage with two game screens stands on the plaza in front of the trees, with the partner’s mark once on its front. The theater’s name stays lit, and the tower screen is shown plain.

3What the guest does.

The thirty-second film, and four frames from it. A boy and his mother come along the plaza toward the doors, and he stops at the stage. He steps up to the stage’s play panel for one round. His win shows on the stage screens, and the crowd around the stage sees it. They walk to the doors under the band with the partner’s mark on it. The film has sound; the frames tell the story without it.

4Proposed activation components: what AEG could sell.

  • Plaza activation. A partner stage on the plaza in front of the theater, with its screens and its play panel, for the event window.
  • Venue signage. The partner’s mark on the band above the theater’s doors and on the mast screen during that window.
  • Sponsor presence. The partner’s mark and colors on the stage and its screens, and the partner’s people at the stage.
  • Fan interaction. One round on the stage’s panel before the doors open, with the win shown to the crowd.

RitualAds makes the visuals that help sell this inventory. The inventory, its packaging and its approvals are AEG’s. Point at a component to see where it sits.

02

A creative note, and the version that answers it.

Your team reviews the concept and tells us what to change. We revise the work and keep earlier versions available for comparison. As an example, a creative director might say: Fewer marks. Keep the partner on the stage and the mast, give the band above the doors back to the show, and let the theater’s name lead. The second version answers that note: the band above the doors carries the theater’s own show listing again, the partner stays on the mast and the stage, and nothing else in the frame moves. The first version stays beside it.

Version two: the band above the doors back to the theater's show listing, the partner on the mast and the stage
Version one: the partner on the band above the doors, the mast and the stage

Drag the handle to compare. More versions of this frame, with other partners, other notes, other events and the frame in motion, are in the demo.

04

The same workflow can be applied across AEG properties, inventory and partner categories.

Three more proposed activations made the same way: a concourse activation and a hospitality space at Crypto.com Arena, and in-venue signage at an LA Kings game. The concourse and the club are illustrative interiors, and the arena bowl approximates the building from an older photograph. None is an approved activation, and the partners shown were not involved.

05

How the work runs, and who does what.

A practical loop from a brief to materials your team can use in a partner pitch. Every version is published to one link, and the earlier versions stay available for comparison.

  1. 1Your team writes the brief: the property, the partner or the category, the event, and any references.
  2. 2We return the concept as stills.
  3. 3Your team picks a direction and gives notes in plain words on any still or sentence.
  4. 4We make the film and the stills from the approved direction and check every frame and every mark.
  5. 5Your team reviews the concept and tells us what to change. We revise the work and keep earlier versions available for comparison.
  6. 6The approved materials go into the partner pitch.

What your team does directly.

Writes the brief. Chooses the property, the partner and the event. Reviews every version on one link. Gives notes in plain words on any still, film or sentence. Chooses between versions. Uses the materials in partner conversations.

What RitualAds does today.

Makes the concept stills, the fan-experience film and the walkthrough. Makes each revision. Checks every frame and every mark before anyone else sees it. Publishes each version to the same link and keeps the earlier ones.

What is on this page. Every still and film here is a completed demonstration asset: finished, checked, and made by RitualAds on its own initiative to show the approach. None of it is an approved activation, and no partner shown was involved or has agreed to anything. An approved activation is one that AEG and the partner have signed off, made from their brief. Your creative team owns the idea and the direction.

06

Prove it on one sponsorship opportunity.

We propose starting with one sponsorship opportunity and agreeing the deliverables, budget and success measures together. The pilot would assess creative quality, production effort and usefulness in partner conversations. Where appropriate, additional creative deliverables could be included in a sponsor’s approved activation budget.

The pilot will measure how quickly we can move from an agreed brief and usable property assets to a reviewable sponsorship concept.

Agree on the pilot scope at our meeting.

07

Agree on the pilot scope at our meeting.

Bring one sponsorship opportunity: the property, the partner or the category, and the event. We will bring the pilot scope to agree on together: the deliverables, the budget and the success measures.

Additional RitualAds work, if useful.Two case studies from live sports and entertainment, and two short films about the studio. Press to open.

RitualAds is a creative studio that makes finished film from a brief. Two examples from our published case studies; the film plays in each card, and the link opens the full case study.

Super Bowl

The brief. A first-of-its-kind Super Bowl hype trailer, co-directed by Ritual Ads director Steve Davis and Sam Joos.

What we made. AI visuals blended with live-action elements in a cinematic hybrid, set to 2WEI’s ‘History in the Making’.

The result. Produced in under two weeks.

Open the case study

Reebok

The brief. Reebok’s signature-shoe launch for Angel Reese, the most followed WNBA player across all social media.

What we made. A production-ready previsualization delivered within 90 minutes, then the cinematic commercial built on that roadmap for the global launch.

The result. The Angel Reese 1 sold out globally within hours of going live, all three colorways, one of Reebok’s fastest product launches in recent history. “This could rewrite the playbook for sports marketing.” Marla Tellez, Fox News

Open the case study

Two short films about the studio and its system. Ritual Engine is the company film: what RitualAds is and the range of what it makes, in eighty seconds. The Wave Demo shows a brief becoming a page: the request for the first films for this page, typed in August, the boards landing, the films landing, and a note becoming a new version, recorded as it happened. Both have sound.

Ritual Engine, the company film, 1:20.

The Wave Demo, a brief becoming a page, 1:29.

Reference, if useful: the category board and how the work is checked.Who is publicly identified at each property, the same frame with a different partner at the arena and the rink, and the checks every film goes through. Press to open.

The category board: who is publicly identified at each property.

Pick a property and a category. The board shows a partner that public sources identify there, or that AEG’s confirmation is required. Public information cannot establish that a category is open, or that a broad category is exclusive, so the board makes no claim about availability. It is filled from press releases and the venues’ own sites as of September 2026, and your partnerships team’s own board replaces it.

Amber cells have a publicly identified partner. Dim cells need AEG’s confirmation. Press a cell or a chip.

How the work is checked.

The venues. The plaza starts from a photograph of the front of the theater taken in February 2026. The arena bowl starts from an older published photograph and approximates the building. The concourse and the club are illustrative interiors. All of them are visualizations, not surveys or digital twins. In a pilot, AEG’s own photography and drawings become the starting point, and any installation still goes through AEG’s approval.

The marks. Partner marks come from the partners’ published artwork and are placed only where signage would go: the boards, the ice, the ribbon boards, the scoreboard, the wall, the plaza screens. Each mark is checked at full size before the work is shown.

Every frame. Each film is stepped through frame by frame before anyone else sees it. A frame with a problem is remade rather than patched.

Hands and objects. Every moment a person handles something, a cup, a controller, the glass, is checked at four frames a second.

Every spoken line. Spoken lines are transcribed from the finished film and checked against the script, word for word.

The crowd. Crowds are shown from behind or as texture. The faces you see belong to the one or two characters each story needs.
