Nike Unexpected Running Conversations2D Motion2021
With the team at Buck I had the privilege to work on these spots for Nike NYC. Nike came to us with a great idea: They wanted to pair artists with athletes’ stories to create inspiring content for the NYC running community. We were invited to spearhead the campaign through a series of spots that mixed live-action and animation, each profiling a different runner and each featuring the work of a different BUCK artist. After selecting three artists from our roster of talented folks, we were off and running with the Nike crew. These are the two episodes which I had the opportunity to lead and animate on.
