Nike’s Manic Quest for “Qiang Diao”

Riff Raff director Finn Keenan, the VFX crew at MPC Shanghai, and actor Liu Xue Tao keep the comedy coming for the full duration of this frenzied two and a half minute epic for Nike thru the Shanghai office of Wieden+Kennedy.

“Qiang Diao is Mandarin for confidence, swagger or flair. It’s an attitude and spirit that’s commonplace in Shanghai. Many people want it, but only a few have it.”
