Ad of the day. adidas Originals | #OriginalSuperstar

Agency: Johannes Leonardo

Director: Karim Huu Do

Prod: Caviar

When the Superstar shoe was first launched by adidas back in 1969, the word ‘Superstar’ was unambiguous. Today, the word has been corrupted to the point of confusion. This year adidas Originals sets out to question what it means to be a superstar, beginning with this film featuring Pharrell Williams, David Beckham, Rita Ora and Damian Lillard.

SUPERSTAR IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK IT IS . TO RE-LAUNCH THE ICONIC ADIDAS SUPERSTAR SHOE AND RE-ESTABLISH ITS CULTURAL RELEVANCE, WE DARED TO QUESTION WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A SUPERSTAR IN TODAY’S WORLD.

Launched in 1969, the Superstar lives at the heart of the adidas Originals brand and was once renowned for its place in rebellious street culture. In 2015, the shoe needed to reassert its dominance with a fresh voice and a new conversation to form a connection with a new generation. One with different values and aspirations from the era when it was first introduced. Popular culture has completely redefined the notions of self-expression, originality, and creativity. We live in a fame-obsessed society where people are motivated to action based on the notoriety that might result We began by questioning the very thing the world is chasing, fueling a conversation about validation-seeking behavior and celebrity worshipping - suggesting that true superstars only have an audience of one. Because only by stripping away, can superstar be built back up with its true, original meaning and inspire a new era of creators who have the courage to create from deep within, following nothing but their instincts. No validation, no applause, no likes needed. The campaign launched with a 90 second film featuring globally recognized superstars David Beckham, Pharrell Williams, Rita Ora and Damian Lillard, each questioning the current notion of superstar and challenging its place in society. The work debuted with takeovers in cities throughout the globe and will continue to rollout across all media in 50+ markets. adidas Originals aims to bring creative courage back to its democratic roots and empower a generation who hungers for it by encouraging a debate online under the hashtag #OriginalSuperstar Welcome to the new era of the original Superstar.

Pepsi Max. Maximum taste, no sugar.

via amvbbdo.com:
"Ahead of the 2014 New Year’s Eve celebrations, Pepsi Max helps its fans get in the party mood with a vibrant video that brings to life the sentiment of the social season.

Instead of the traditional fireworks, Pepsi Max created its own explosion of colour using 2,014 mousetraps and 2,015 Ping-Pong balls to set off a spectacular and mesmerising chain reaction. 

The bold project, which took three months to plan, was eventually captured in a single take that lasted just 15 seconds in real time."

Video of the day. Benjamin Millepied: Haut Vol

The Paris Opera Ballet takes flight above the French capital

“One can not come and shoot at Palais Garnier without marveling at the architecture, the atmosphere of this glorious theater from 1875,” says the Paris Opera Ballet’s Benjamin Millepied, of the ecstatic architectural-inspired piece directed by Louis de Caunes, featuring dancers Leonore Baulac and Alistair Madin. “I think Louis de Caunes was inspired by all he had in front of him. The dancing, the spaces, the light.” The historic institution—boasting the oldest resident ballet company in the world—last October named the French native its latest Director of Dance, who recently joined Russian model Natalia Vodianova on stage for her Annie Leibovitz-photographed Vogue cover shoot.

A homeomorphism, also called a continuous transformation, is an equivalence relation and
one-to-one correspondence between points in two geometric figures or topological spaces
that is continuous in both directions.

Many forms observed in nature can be related to geometry. In accordance with classical geometry,
the shapes that found in nature are consisting of lines and planes, circles and spheres,
triangles and cones. These shapes actually are a powerful abstraction of reality, so we need primitive objects to give a form and understand the complex structure that exists in nature.

Our starting point was topography and primitive object’s pertinent points of overlap. The inspiration
comes from the extreme diversity of New Mexico’s landforms (which is divided into four regions; Great Plains, Rocky Mountains, Colorado Plateau, Basin and Range Province), general changes of topography and homeomorphism.

Campaign of the day. Outdo you with Nike+ - mcbess

animation by mcbees


2014 was just a warm up. 2015 is the year to outdo you with Nike+. #justdoit

http://gonike.me/ouryear

"In an era of data visualization and the “connected self,” Nike is reminding athletes* across the United States and Canada that data means nothing if you don’t do something with it. To celebrate their year of activity and challenge athletes at any level to outdo their 2014 accomplishments, Nike is creating Your Year with Nike+, a series of unique, personalized animated films for the most active Nike+ athletes.


As part of Your Year with Nike+, over 100,000 Nike+ members across Nike+ Running, Nike+ Training Club and NikeFuel will each receive a personalized one-minute film designed by French illustrator-director McBess with content guided by their own Nike+ activity from 2014.
Each film is created using location, weather, activity and individual Nike+ movement data. Meaning a runner from Toronto would receive a completely different film to an NTC user in New York.

“Our Nike+ members accomplished some amazing things in 2014, and we wanted to inspire them to push for new goals and opportunities in 2015 by sharing some of the magic behind their data in an artistic and unexpected way,” said David Schriber, Vice President, North America Brand Marketing at NIKE, Inc."
