Description

The video was created as a technical training tool for Nike sales reps and accounts. It was designed to resemble educational films from the ’60s. The challenge was creating such a comprehensive tool on a limited budget. The use of simple, crude animation was consistent with the concept and presented the technical features of Nike eyewear in an unexpected and entertaining way.
