2000 One Show Awards Winner; One Show Prize Awarded to Red Sky Interactive for Nike Digital Video.


Business Editors

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 10, 2000

Red Sky Interactive won the Silver Pencil Award in the Broadband Web site category at the 2000 One Show for its design of Nike Digital Video (www.nike.com). The prizes were presented at an awards ceremony held last night in New York City New York City: see New York, city.

City (pop., 2000: 8,008,278), southeastern New York, at the mouth of the Hudson River. The largest city in the U.S.
.

With Nike Digital Video, formerly called Nike Movie Maker, Red Sky Interactive continues its commitment to building immersive branded experiences by turning users into producers-writers-directors of their own short films. After selecting the sport (including basketball, snowboarding, running, and cross-training), users then choose five black-and-white images from a list of 15. These images range from the dreamy to the dramatic: a soccer goalie cocking back his throwing arm; a snowboarder peeling down a mountainside; a hoopster stretching to block a jumpshot. Next, users write in their own captions beneath the images. The final step is to overlay a soundtrack, selecting from BPM, hops, sportmix, flow, barrage, and speedcore. The result is an arresting multi-media narrative that expresses the user's unique feeling about sport and fitness.

"Passion for sports can be expressed in so many ways," said Joel Hladecek, Senior Vice President, National Creative Director of Broadband & Entertainment at Red Sky Interactive. "Our goal was to develop a feature that would encourage creative responses, but which could be completed in a relatively short amount of time."

The One Show is designed to acknowledge creative standards for the advertising industry, rewarding excellence in concept, art and design, copy, and functionality. Winners receive Gold, Silver and Bronze pencils, which have become synonymous with synonymous with
adjective equivalent to, the same as, identical to, similar to, identified with, equal to, tantamount to, interchangeable with, one and the same as
 excellence in advertising.
