Simon Robson for Adidas

At the risk of sounding like I’m talking about a daring new album from my favorite band, this new Adidas spot from Simon Robson (Nexus Productions) has really grown on me. Visually, it reminds me a little of Logan’s “Timbales” spot for VW and the Dupont spot from Lobo.

It’s a smooth bit of work, with strong, simple palettes, clever transitions and some beautiful organic lines. I say big thumbs up.

Really nice work, and I hate to get all technical, but what’s with that compression? Puke. Even being compressed that much didn’t stop it from loading like a snail for me.

Dude, I know. I love Nexus, but I hate watching videos are their damned site. I’ll see what I can do about it…

Hi Justin, i just sent John a link to an html page with a movie on it with less compression. I also sent storyboards and comments if they are of use for your site. Thanks, Simon Robson
