NIKE - "DREAM CRAZY" - 30TH ANNIVERSARY "JUST DO IT" COMMERCIAL

What started as a fan-made Nike commercial just 8 months prior, Charlie Jabaley and I got the attention of Nike's VP of Brand Marketing Gino Fisanotti and planted the seed for a commercial based on the common man. That commercial would end up being "Dream Crazy", their 30th anniversary Emmy Award-Winning "Just Do It" commercial featuring Colin Kaepernick which is arguably the biggest commercial they have ever made. Nike featured our content in the commercial and kept true to their motto of "If you have a body, you are an athlete.". To go from making a fan-made Nike commercial to inspiring one of the biggest Nike commercials of all time AND getting our work in it is a huge honor, and is by far my biggest accomplishment as a filmmaker.

Palm Springs was one of our social media clients at Sonic Gods. Occasionally they would ask us to make commercials that would air in the greater Palm Springs area. This was one of those commercials.

Hello, Palm Springs

This is a music video I helped film. I was really excited to do this video because of the use of colored lights. I personally own a set of Astera Titan Tubes and Big X let me have free reign on creating a vibe with those lights.

There’s no apartment in New York City more famous than Monica’s impossible rent-controlled, two-bedroom West Village digs. From the purple walls to the outdoor terrace, the “Friends” apartment became the quintessential ideal of everything New York could be. That’s all thanks to John Shaffner, the man responsible for creating the set of “Friends.” As a production designer, Shaffner has worked on 44 different series and 68 pilots, including “Dharma and Greg,” “The Drew Carey Show,” “Two and a Half Men,” and “The Big Bang Theory.”

Our production company, Seithati Media (at that time called Fertile Ground Films), filmed survivors of the 1960 Sharpeville Massacre for this UN global campaign against racism. It was an honour to record the still harrowing personal experiences of these anti-apartheid heroes.

بھارت کے دارالحکومت نئی دہلی کے علاقے 'مجنوں کا ٹیلہ' میں نہ تو اب کوئی ٹیلہ ہے اور نہ ہی یہاں مجنوں رہتا ہے۔ بلکہ یہ چین کے علاقے تبت سے نقل مکانی کر کے بھارت آنے والے پناہ گزینوں کی بستی ہے جسے لوگ 'چھوٹا تبت' بھی کہتے ہیں۔ اس علاقے کی تاریخ کیا ہے اور اس کا نام مجنوں کا ٹیلہ کیوں پڑا؟ جانیے سہیل اختر کی رپورٹ میں۔

Karachi’s first responders work for the world’s largest voluntary ambulance service, providing relief to a city of 25 million people. But tiring work on the front line, where death and suffering is a constant, comes at the cost of their own mental health. 

VICE witnesses the lives of two ambulance drivers as they selflessly traverse Karachi’s volatile urban landscape, focusing primarily on life after the fact; the ‘in-between’ moments of reflection and solitude that bring them face to face with not just their obvious detachment from the city and people they serve, but also the pressures of a rather demanding job.

VICKY M.

Music is one of my biggest passions. I have written songs with Linkin Park and FKi 1st (one of hip hop's biggest producers), opened shows for Green Day and Twenty One Pilots, and have had one of my songs go RIAA certified gold.

Cinematography started as a flirtation (a way to kick start my band) but over the years it has become a passion equally as large as music. I have worked with some of the biggest names in the business such as Nike, HyperloopTT, Palm Springs, Charlie Rocket, Vero, Bosch, Troye Sivan, Brat, Fashion Nova, and Ableton. My biggest accomplishment was contributing work on Nike's Emmy Award-Winning 30th Anniversary "Just Do It" commercial "Dream Crazy" featuring Colin Kaepernick, arguably their biggest commercial they've had to date.

No matter what career path I take, my work ethic and my drive to be the best version of myself always results in success at the highest of levels.

Husain edited 3 episodes of the acclaimed documentary series called Fundamental.
