Mather & Co has completed a major collaboration with The R&A, projecting 160 years of history onto its iconic clubhouse in St Andrews – narrated by Gerard Butler.

The Wilmslow studio was brought in having completed the redevelopment of The R&A World Golf Museum.

“Projection mapping of this iconic building was not without its challenges. It has been delightful to work with a fresh thinking, creative client, and a marvellous talented production team – we are very pleased with the outcome!” said Chris Mather, CEO at Mather & Co.

The 10 minute “Celebration of Light” film used 4D motion graphics, with a timeline starting at the original Open Championship in 1860 and ending at the present day, with The 150th Open.


“The R&A Celebration of Light was a spectacular way to continue our countdown to The 150th Open at St Andrews,” said Martin Slumbers, Chief Executive of The R&A.

“You felt a real sense of excitement among the spectators who attended on the evening as we enjoyed reliving the iconic moments which have made this great Championship so revered by millions of fans around the world.”

The event was a collaboration between Mather & Co, The R&A, Malcolm Booth, Paul Sutcliffe, Kelly Laskiewicz, production team Daryl Goodrich and Nymbl and projection team Doubletake Productions.
