WNBA More Than A Game

Client: Bartle Bogle Hegarty NY

What would it look like to capture the dynamism of the WNBA; the skill, guile, and drive of 12 teams and 144 players competing at the highest level? That’s the creative challenge we embraced to set the stage for another thrilling WNBA season.

Billed as a ‘metropolis of more’, BBH teamed up with us to capture the league’s tenacity, playfulness and sense of sisterhood, all within thirty seconds. The result is a dynamic mixed-media film featuring WNBA superstar A’ja Wilson that blends CG, archival and live-action footage.

Mayda Director Anton Shavkero’s brought his trademark visual style and utilized 3D scans to create A’ja’s digital avatar, which was combined with live-action plates and archival footage to create a film that takes the viewer on a journey between the purpose-built multiverse WNBA and the IRL WNBA, giving a unique dual court-side and in-game experience.
