Long Live the Prince by Clerihew
LONG LIVE THE PRINCE
Kiyan Prince was a promising youngster who was signed to the Queens Park Rangers youth team.
But on 18th May 2006 at the age of 15 he was tragically killed as he tried to break up a fight outside his school.
To mark the 15th anniversary of his death, @enginelondon teamed up with @thekpf to inspire young people and show them the top footballer Kiyan would have become in a trailblazing campaign for football, gaming & sponsorship.
The images of Kiyan as a 30-year-old were created through a combination of advanced deep fake technology, photography by @davidclerihewillustration, and input from scientists and Kiyan's family. Working alongside the talented people at @framestore & Chris Scalf.
Football club QPR @officialqpr have resigned Kiyan (after already renaming the stadium in his honour in 2019), he will have his own @toppsmatchattax_card. And with the help of @adidasfootball Kiyan will wear the 20/21 Copa boot when he appears virtually as a player in FIFA 21 @easportsfifa. Alongside @jdsports
campaigns which will see him stand tall across some of the UK’s most iconic billboards.
