NIKE JUMPS ABOARD THE PARKOUR BANDWAGON: DOES IT LIKE ONLY NIKE CAN

June 30, 2009

EA’s Mirror’s Edge, Radicals Prototype, Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed, Realtime World’s Crackdown and even Lara Croft herself have all presented their abilities in the art of Parkour. It was only a matter of time until a company with the marketing prowess at the level of, oh let’s say.. NIKE, would take the idea and run with it… literally. Check out NIKE’s ‘The Runner: Exploit yourself’ commercial directed by Carl Erik Rinsch and produced at Big Lazy Robot VFX Studios. Watch it and then watch it again. Amazing.
