Walter Iooss has been giving lots of interviews in the past few weeks, thanks to “Open Air,” an exhibition of his iconic Michael Jordan photos at the Field Museum in Chicago, as well as his appearance and exhibition at the recent LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph in Charlotteseville, Virginia. Below, a selection of video and print pieces in which the legendary sports photographer sheds light on his amazing career…

TBWA\Paris recently tapped Jason Hindley for a McDonald’s campaign illustrating the underwhelming food and drink options of the everyday person, with copy reminding viewers that there’s a far more appealing alternative nearby at the Golden Arches. The campaign is being featured in the new issue of Luerzer’s Archive, which will be distributed to attendees of the big Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity this month.

As USA Today recently reported, Marshawn Lynch is the first athlete to be a character in the upcoming edition of the hugely popular Call of Duty video game.

“For his role in the game, which is set to release in November, Lynch visited Black Ops III developer Treyarch and squeezed into a motion capture suit to bring his digital character to life.” (Read more here.)

Art Streiber photographed Lynch in said suit—and other in other setups—for the cover story of ESPN The Magazine‘s June 22 edition. (Read the feature here.) Here’s a look…

Showtime asked Steven Lippman to shoot the key art for season three of the hit series Ray Donovan, which stars Liev Schreiber as a fixer for Hollywood’s elite. Steven, who previously worked with Showtime on The Affair, also directed a promo piece for the show. He worked with creative director Larry Merritt. Here’s a look…

Outside magazine delves into “Meru,” Jimmy Chin’s award-winning documentary, which is coming to a theater near you in August

Jimmy Chin‘s feature-length documentary Meru, which won the audience award at the Sundance Film Festival this past January (and has been met with praise from the press), will be hitting theaters across America in August, and we just can’t wait.

The movie—codirected by Jimmy’s wife, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, whose directing credits include Youssou Ndour: I Bring What I Love—tells of Jimmy and fellow mountaineers Conrad Anker and Renan Ozturk‘s quest to reach the top of Meru Central in the Himalayas by way of a 1,500-foot slice of granite known as the Shark’s Fin.

“It’s a 90-minute explanation of why he and his friends risk so much, and it succeeds not because the climbing is crazy—though it is—but because it’s a well-told coming of age for three mountain-obsessed men who refuse to give up on their dream despite the demands of adulthood,” writes Outside magazine in a feature on Meru published in the July issue. “Rather than try to boil down the feeling into something pithy, the film is an incremental meditation.”

Notes Jimmy, “I finally said what I’ve been trying to say for so long.”

Stockland Martel is thrilled to congratulate Lauren Greenfield and Leo Burnett for triumphing at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity, where #LikeAGirl won 14 awards—including the most coveted prize in commercial advertising, the Titanium Award. The spot also won two of other most prestigious Cannes Lions awards, the Grand Prix and the Glass Lion.

“This has been the most moving and gratifying experience because of the reaction of the audience and the way it has resonated internationally to numbers beyond our wildest dreams,” Lauren explained in a Q&A posted on the Leo Burnett blog about the making of the groundbreaking spot for Always.

“While we had emotional and insightful moments on set, we never could have imagined the way this piece would connect and become a rallying cry for female empowerment. The video has become a call to action, and has effectively changed the meaning of deep-seated stereotypes. For myself, it has been inspiring and affirming in the ability to make a difference through film. I am proud to direct ‘like a girl.'”

For its July issue, which looks at jobs and working from every imaginable angle, Wired asked Art Streiber to photograph actress and author Rashida Jones. “I honestly don’t know where to start with describing how wonderful this shoot was,” says Art. “It was in San Francisco, it was for Wired magazine, and it was with Rashida Jones…an editorial hat trick!”

“The folks at Wired are talented, thoughtful, creative, and amazing to work with,” Art continues. “Senior Photo Editor Anna Goldwater and Director of Photography Patrick Witty produced the shoot in Wired’s photo studio at their newly redesigned, super-sleek offices.

“Deputy Creative Director David Moretti and Executive Creative Director Billy Sorrentino collaborated with me throughout the creative process as we attempted to illustrate the new, overlapping world order of WORK and PLAY.

“And Editor in Chief Scott Dadich was succinctly visionary when it came to the final design of the cover. He was also a great sport on camera as well, while Rashida put him in a headlock and gave him a ‘noogie.’

“Rashida Jones? Smart, funny, talented, patient, and willing to try whatever crazy suggestions we threw her way.”

The Black Tux is a sharp new rental-tuxedo company that offers tailored tuxes with a precision fit at wallet-friendly prices, putting an end to the lumpy, overpriced formalwear of days gone by. As GQ puts it, “The Black Tux has come to rescue guys from tux-rental hell.”

In a summer-themed story shot in Malibu, Steven Lippman captures the edgy, stylish spirit of the brand with the help of pro surfers Luke Davis, Nick Rozsa, Chase Wilson, and Matt McCabe. Below, some highlights from “Wet Suits.”
