Impossible is Nothing

The famous Adidas slogan was originally a quote by Muhammad Ali at the peak of his illustrious career at which point the brand and the quote were officially associated in 1974. 



The brand aimed itself at athletes with the power of emotion in sport at its core – was successfully mirrored by a man who represented the same principles. The famous ad campaign involving Ali on a jog, superimposed with other more recent sports celebrities including Zinedine Zidane, David Beckham and Haile Gebrselassie, became highly impactful and memorable.  






The slogan emotionally connects the idea of passion with physical activity and remained a powerfully short and appropriate slogan until 2013 when the it was changed, but most will always remember Impossible is Nothing when thinking of this iconic sports brand.

Another victory sip

Johnnie Walker, the sophisticated scotch brand, has released a follow-up short film to last year's piece, once again directed by Jake Scott and starring Jude Law and Giancarlo Giannini.



This second instalment showcases the refined and traditional Johnnie Walker lifestyle in an adventurous competition between the two men over whether Law's character can drive Giannini's relic of a sports car to Monaco across Italy - with the car as the stake.  Law wins the bet and therefore takes the car off Giannini's hands - though in good humour, as per Jude's victory last time around.

Once again the product placement is subtle and smartly woven into the tale, not obvious as a protagonist of any kind - but used convincingly to link the characters from the story's origin to the eventual, celebratory finale.

Jude is cultivating quite a collection!
