Manchester City sponsor Nissan threw down a fab film challenge to some of the club’s top stars, with hilarious results.
Manchester City superstars Kevin De Bruyne, Kyle Walker and İlkay Gündoğan teamed up with club partner Nissan to create a teaser for their own action thriller in a campaign for Nissan by sports creative agency Dark Horses.
Manchester City stars’ film effort
Nissan challenged the players to work with the recently launched Next Generation Nissan Juke and create a teaser film. But they had to do it in one hour.
The finished result is a two and a half minute spot following the path of the film being made. From storyline and character creation to filming the action and car chase scenes – you have to watch this.
Quick title
Titling the film themselves, “A Little Bit Quick” the short follows the drama of two special agents chasing the evil Dark Illy.
Steve Howell, Creative Partner at Dark Horses, said: “Kevin, Kyle and Illy were fantastic to work with and really threw themselves into the concept and the production with classic City energy and intensity.
“The boys done good, to borrow a classic football phrase.”
A teaser appeared on 2 January with the full film going live across social media on the 9 January.
The campaign will run online, predominantly through social channels, for 2-3 weeks.
