The footage was used to create exclusive Spider-Man animation sequences in which Spider-Man swings through buildings, crawls up walls, shoots webbing at the screen, or engages bad guys on the streets. When the virtual Spider-Man appears on their phones, users can take photos and share them within their networks. Each photo experience will be unique to the user, and fans can share multiple photos from each interaction.To activate the animation sequences within the app, users can find out the locations for special marker images on the film’s official website and social network pages on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and more. Sony Stores, Activision, and Entertainment Weekly will also offer marker images. As a bonus, a frame within the new trailer, when scanned, will also reveal one of the Spider-Man animations on the user’s mobile device. Each new image activates one of 13 achievement badges that users can share on Facebook and Twitter.Commenting on the announcement, Dwight Caines, President of Worldwide Digital Marketing for Sony Pictures, said, “Many of today’s moviegoers are digital natives on the go, and our app allows us to engage them. Our use of augmented reality technology is a fun way of embracing the 3D aspects of the movie while nurturing the playful kid inside all of us who wants to collect items from their favorite superhero character to share with their friends and family.”The Amazing Spider-Man Augmented Reality app is now available for download from the App Store and Google Play.
