The New Speed of Light captures the footballing genius of Leo Messi like you've never seen before. Exploring the moves that make him the best in the world in intricate detail through the use of light.
The film captures and analyzes Leo's movement, to reveal the secret of his movement on the pitch as well as highlight the light in motion design of the new adizero F50 Messi boot he'll wear for the first part of the season. To do this, Leo wore a custom-made LED suit and hood, with hundreds of individual LED's sewn by hand in to adidas TechFit gear. As well as 'hacked' adizero F50 Messi boots rigged with the three stripes in LED and a bespoke, moulded LED football. He was then filmed at 1000 frames per second using a Phantom camera and the resulting footage treated using a specially developed visual effects technique — creating a beautiful echo effect and a concert visual aesthetic set to a fitting electro/dance track by Congorock.

The Adidas Ajax Experience prank might not go over so well here in North America but in Amsterdam, Adidas and the ad agency Iris pulled off an epic prank.
Imagine: The new home shirt of your favorite football/soccer team has arrived. You go to the fan shop to try one on and Adidas pulls this on you with the help of the entire Ajax soccer team.
A series of fake fitting rooms were installed inside the Ajax Experience, Amsterdam. Inside one room, one of the walls was fake with a two-way mirror. When fans entered the room and started trying on their jersey, the mirror/wall suddenly opened. And there were Ajax players Vurnon Anita, Kolbeinn Sigthorsson, Daley Blind, Jasper Cillessen, team captain Siem de Jong and women's team players and Leonne Stentler Babiche Roof to cheer them on.
Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffiin III stars in the TV commercial for the Adidas Adizero 5 star. RGIII shines in the Adidas ad playing multiple roles, he haunts a fearful opponent, appears driving a bus driver, a trainer, a police office and the signal caller.
