TBWA commissioned Tokyo based sports photographer Adam Pretty to shoot NBA stars Derrick Rose and Dwight Howard for the new adidas hoodie lines. Rose and Howard visited Shanghai and Beijing in August 2011 with Adam flying in from Tokyo to shoot the campaign. The athletes were shot in studio with simple set builds used to recreate stadium environments.
