This video introduces the MDR-3R Stranger Things Edition headphones.

The video opens with an exterior view of a house in the middle of a forest. A lightning storm is forming overhead. Cutting to the inside, the camera pans towards a pair of black wired headphones connected to a smartphone on a bed in a dimly-lit room. A young woman picks up the headphones, sits on the bed, and begins listening to music.

 

As she listens, the lights in the room begin to flicker. She looks tentatively around the room, as it briefly fades to black then transforms into a mysterious space filled with floating blue particles. She looks around at the altered surroundings.

The camera moves closer to the headphones, revealing that the ear pads are now red, although they were black earlier.

The scene then shifts to the forest outside, with the imposing shadowy shapes of trees and an abandoned bicycle. The house is visible in the distance through mist and drifting blue particles as thunder rumbles overhead.

Back in the interior of the house we see a board game  with a vintage WM-8 Walkman® sitting on top of it. The tiles on the board and loosely scattered but appear to spell “HAWKINS.”

 

Lightning flashes and lights up the room as the woman stands and walks in front of the bed, still looking around the room, now transformed into a blue-tinted world.

 

The camera moves in for a close-up of the headphones, revealing the “Stranger Things” logo engraved on the top of the headband. The scene cuts to the woman in profile as the Sony logo on the headphones catches the light and briefly shines.

 

The scene shifts outdoors once more, showing a full view of the house and its surroundings, as a giant “Mind Flayer” creature is suddenly illuminated by lightning in the rolling clouds above.

 

The video closes on a black background with an MDR-3R × Stranger Things logo with two versions of the MDR-3R rotating slowly in space—one with red ear pads and one with black ear pads—rise into view at the center of the screen. The video concludes with Sony’s animated logo.
