"Born in Manhattan, Jake Davis is a graduate of NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and nominated MTV student visionary filmmaker. While still in film school Jake was recruited by the advertising agency Wieden+Kennedy to direct a short film for Nike. From the success of that collaboration, the relationship developed into several more innovative projects. Jake continued to create slice-of-life grassroots promos and industrials for Nike, as well as long-form concert videos, tour visuals, and EPK’s for Sony, Columbia, Fat Beats, and a host of other record labels. He is a constant collaborator with international skate/streetwear brand Supreme and is developing the feature film script “Coolhunter,” which is inspired by his work for Nike." - Jake Davis Blog
A true inspiration. Seen his work over the past time(I've posted some of his stuff earlier Street Etiquette spots and such etc) and its very admirable. Its work on a level that will put him in the history books. I like the stuff he has done for Supreme, and Nike.. his "Test Shot" videos are pretty nice as well. They're very short, but they express so much, and the composition is so on point. I think this is the work I dig the most from him Here are some of his "Test Shot" videos:
So many more to watch.. check him out at www.jakedavisfilms.com.
