01 / Overview

Nike / Air Max Dn8

Mimic Productions partnered with Berlin studio NEWFORMAT on the Nike Air Max Dn8 campaign featuring Spanish footballer Salma Paralluelo. The project formed part of the shoe’s global launch, pairing athletes with creators to explore movement.

Mimic created Paralluelo’s digital double and delivered full-body motion capture and animation. The work translated her athletic performance into material that NEWFORMAT could integrate with its campaign vision.

Recording the performance

Full-body motion capture recorded the athlete’s movement, providing data rooted in her own performance rather than a generic character motion.
