Anchorfan – Fan Story Promo

Steve — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 12:34:21 +0000

Legend in his own lifetime, John Anthony Portsmouth Football Club Westwood (yes, that's his real name) stars in this Pompey inspired promo for the Sports content website Anchorfan. And if you think John's Jekyll and Hyde lifestyle is somewhat eccentric, you should see his house, complete with Portsmouth bar and beer garden. Surely, every football fan's dream.

With a string of impressive victories under their belt, it was time for the Nike Academy to venture abroad and test their mettle against European giants Inter Milan. Faced with a formidable display of defensive steel, it was up to in-form strikers Tobi and Mustapha to break down one of the most stubborn defences in World football.

Steve — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 15:29:53 +0000

HTC – Detour

Steve — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 09:44:37 +0000

So you've got the chance to shut down one of Europe's most beautiful cities for a night - what would you do? Judging by HTC's cycling crew, the best option is to rip it up in Warsaw, riding through underground train stations, down stairs and off the sides of buildings in search of the ultimate adrenaline hit. Knee pads very much recommended...

What better way to spend a long weekend than hitting the coast with a childhood hero? Men's Health magazine helped us to do exactly that, as we joined Action Man and his gaggle of pals in Brighton for a whole heap of microscopic fashion fun. Who would've thought macho could be so high couture?!

Nike – Inside Edge Man Utd Trailer

Steve — Wed, 27 Jul 2011 15:02:03 +0000

Nike – The Chance Global Finals

Steve — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 13:15:28 +0000

Eight months of blood, sweat and tears have all been leading up to this moment: 100 finalists from 40 countries, battlling it out for a full -time contract with the Nike Academy next season. The tackles flew, and the tears flowed as fast as the football in this epic showdown between some of the world's brightest young footballing talents.

LWLies – A Magazine is Born

Steve — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 13:10:15 +0000

Ever wondered what it takes to produce a thing of beauty like the Black Swan issue of Little White Lies? Well, spare 90 seconds to watch the video above and you'll find out. From what we can gather, it involves many cups of tea, several technological meltdowns, and a whole lot of TLC before the team get to enjoy that oh-so-satisfying smell of fresh-ink-on-lovely paper.

Scored with Clint Mansell's theme from Darren Aronofsky's film (with kind permission from Twentieth Century Fox), this is what got Creative Review all hot under the collar a couple of weeks ago.

Nokia – Behind the E7

Steve — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 13:08:50 +0000

Comparing a mobile phone to a fruit might seem a bit leftfield, but it all seems to make sense listening to Nokia designer Shunjiro Eguchi.

Protest Boardwear – Protest: Summer

Steve — Fri, 12 Nov 2010 18:32:29 +0000

Summer sucks. Well, if you're a snowboarder it does. Snow melts, ice turns to glass, and you're constantly at the mercy of some pretty fickle elements.

But you know what? It's a heck of a lot better than sitting on your behind waiting for the new season to begin. That's why Protest Boardwear's Aymeric Tonin's sees Summer riding as a discipline in itself. Throw in an opportunity for a spot of skateboarding and a round of golf, and suddenly the off-season starts to look like the new Winter...

Nike Academy vs Watford

Steve — Wed, 03 Nov 2010 15:39:39 +0000

After defeat at Wycombe, the Academy boys all had a point to prove against Watford, but none more so than Kieron Forbes and Andy Yiadom who were both returning to their old club. The greasy surface made for a quick passing game and the lads dug deep to twice come back from behind and clinch victory. Cover your eyes, there are a few hefty tackles in this one!

Protest:Excuses

Steve — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 17:28:21 +0000

You know those voices in your head? The ones that tell you that you're better off huddling up in the warm with a cuppa than venturing out onto the mountain and seeing just how good a snowboarder you can be?

Well, as the first instalment in our Protest Boardwear campaign proves, those voices are all wrong. Press play to take a journey through the darkest recesses of the weak-hearted snowboarder's mind - and take a stand against the excuses that stop you from hitting the slopes.

Nike – Code Red (Directors’ Cut)

Steve — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 19:21:39 +0000

‘Pre-season. It’s not glamorous. It’s not pretty. It’s just graft.’

Commissioned to coincide with the launch of Manchester United’s new replica and training kits, Nike wanted a film that would communicate the true blood, sweat and tears that go into pre-season training at an elite professional club.

Sneaking into the team’s Carrington training facility at 3am to watch the sun rise was our first challenge, but putting Sir Alex’s prize assets through their paces without getting caught by the gaffer was another problem altogether. Fortunately, Rooney, Rio and friends turned in performances that would shame some Hollywood stars and early reviews point towards Oscar nominations for Darren Fletcher and Three-Lungs Park.
