CLIENT: ADIDAS & CHAMPS SPORTS
9iFX was brought in by the creative team at DotDotDash to deliver a ton of compositing/matte painting and 2D effects on a tight time table. Say goodbye to gravity in this campaign, consisting of a hero spot and two supporting shorts.
CONCEPT
The campaign’s main protagonists find themselves transported into a digital world, where the rules of physics as we know them no longer apply. This creative concept was born out of a desire to capture the essence of the 80s, while at the same time exploring the limitless possibilities that exist in the digital realm.
PROCESS
9iFX was brought in as additional help to deliver a complicated onslaught of composited images and 2D laser-like effects, processing more than 50 shots in a 2 week period in order to meet a really tight deadline. A lot of long days and late nights went into making this campaign happen.
CONCLUSION
The campaign consisted of two shorter vignettes and a longer hero spot. It was featured as a broadcast spot, as well as digitally displayed in Adidas stores across the country. We happened to capture some footage of our effects at the flagship store in Manhattan shortly after this campaign was released!
This is the full spot, telling the story of hour Aaron Jones took a leap into the digital world and said goodbye to gravity.
This ten second short forms part of the larger social/digital campaign.
