The announcement that the Grammy Award-winning artist will perform midway through the Feb. 5, 2011 game was made during the last Sunday Night Football game on NBC, the press release said.

“Our team is comprised of artists whose expertise ranges from software development to motion design and all of us are absolutely delighted to be working with an artist whose creativity continues to astound us. Moment Factory always looks to engage audiences with something they have never seen before, and we are certain that this show will thrill spectators,” Sakchin Besette, Partner and Creative Director of Moment Factory was quoted as saying in a Tuesday press release.

Moment Factory’s production of the halftime time show will be its most recent work.
