Nike Air Jordan "Nightmares Never Sleep" Edited by Paul Hardcastle

Paul Hardcastle recently completed this stunning cut for Nike Air Jordan with award winning director Adam Berg at Smuggler. The agency was Wieden & Kennedy NY, a creative force that's been behind Nike for over two decades, and famously coined the iconic tag "Just Do It".

The spot was filmed in Miami and edited in Stockholm, New York and London. A major editing challenge was not being able to show whole faces of the players or revealing who the actual team are because it was acted by non NBA players. The players were also not allowed to commit a foul by actually striking eachother. Here's Paul's standout cut featuring some supernatural sporting powers.
