Warbasse built out the original IRON MAN 2 one-sheet to add a designer QR Code connecting mobile users in New York and Los Angeles to interactive mobile content for the movie. By scanning the barcode on the IRON MAN 2 poster, moviegoers on mobile devices including iPhone, Android, Blackberry, Opera, Palm, Windows Mobile could learn more about the upcoming film, view the theatrical trailer and movie stills, and even buy tickets directly from their smartphones.
In 2010, the IRON MAN 2 digital one-sheet represented the future of movie posters. It marked the first time a designer QR Code was integrated into a one-sheet, making it more useful. Moviegoers who scanned the code on the IRON MAN 2 poster could read the film's synopsis, view the theatrical trailer and image gallery, and purchase tickets. Warbasse transformed the traditional movie poster into a beacon of engaging content.
