Mitchell & Ness x Jordan

When Mike Became Michael

Agency: Andpeople

Description

Great Guns’ Suzanne Kim has teamed up with Mitchell & Ness, Philadelphia's oldest sportswear company, to celebrate an iconic moment of sporting history. 40 years on from Michael Jordan’s 1982 NCAA Championship Game as a freshman, ‘When Mike Became Michael’ celebrates the sporting legend’s last-second basket which set him on a path to stardom - all through the eyes of a teenage girl.
The film, which heralds Mitchell & Ness’ exclusive sale of the iconic 1983-84 Michael Jordan University of North Carolina Jersey, opens inside a home where a girl and her father are seen watching sports. Bathed in a hazy aura of nostalgia, we hear fuzzy commentary of the match play over the action. As the audio drifts in and out, the scene cuts between several shots of the girl’s life - practising basketball alone and with her dad, spending time with him around the dinner table, and watching the game at the edge of their seats. As the atmosphere intensifies, the crowd chanting with increasing passion, we hear them erupt into applause for the final frame: the girl, wearing Michael Jordan’s famous jersey, as the commentator announces the star’s victory.
