Time Based Arts: Nike’s “Nothing Beats a Londoner”

Shoreditch VFX shop Time Based Arts supplied the 2D and 3D work on Nike’s new street-level three-minute epic highlighting the talents of young Londoners. Directed by Riff Raff’s Megaforce thru Wieden+Kennedy.

From Wieden+Kennedy: “There was a feeling that Nike had lost touch with the real kids of London and our campaigns didn’t talk to them in their own language anymore, so we wanted to get back on their level and create a new voice and presence in London that makes ripples around the world, allowing our consumers to see, touch, and feel the Nike brand again.”
