Powerade reached out with an exciting challenge: create a campaign for their College Football series that captured the soul of the sport. Each spot champions a different iconic college and the unique traditions that fuel its spirit. We pushed into muscular, high-octane motion to mirror the grit and adrenaline of game day—and loved every minute of it.
