Nike 'here i am' by Wieden & Kennedy Amsterdam
The films, created by Wieden & Kennedy Amsterdam, use a variety of animation styles, from CGI to sketched animations, to showcase the inner strengths of various female athletes.
The stories include that of a triathlete who thrives in apocalyptic weather conditions, a triple jumper who found her strength in what she thought was her greatest weakness and a 400-metre sprinter whose animated body parts engage in a struggle between mind and body.
The films will be launching on a dedicated website on 12 September.

Forget the ‘Store of the Future’; brands need to think about the store of tomorrow
Technological innovations are everywhere, and while we may hear about a number of fascinating new developments, few will actually truly define the future of retail. Considering the changing landscape, technology is irrelevant if you don’t first understand both the behaviours and motivations of consumers in a hyper-connected, multi-channel world.
