Nadal Versus

Summary

PokerStars' latest commercial takes their 'We Are Poker' campaign to the next level with the introduction of Rafael Nadal as brand ambassador

This new spot celebrates the launch of PokerStars' new mobile app. Shot on location in Barcelona, and directed once again by Partizan's Niall Downing, we helped bring the crowd of Nadal's fans to life.

"We had a limited number of extras available on set" recalls Mill VFX supervisor, Andrew Sommerville "so our biggest challenge was turning a small group of people into a crowd of hundreds. Using Massive, we generated a CGI crowd that feels reflective of his celebrity."
