Using a memorable scene from an all-time classic movie, Nike has unveiled its latest film called "Shout."

Created by Wieden + Kennedy, "Shout" references the famous "toga party" scene from "Animal House." Nike creates its own version using several notable alumni from the University of Oregon including Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Marcus Mariota, NFL greats Ahmad Rashad and Dan Fouts, and ESPN's Neil Everett amongst others. While most folks are familiar with Nike and the movie, few people realize the deep connection between the two. For instance, the movie was shot in Eugene, Oregon on the Ducks' campus and Phil Knight, a pole vaulter for the school, was also in the film. The film's title "Shout," gets its name from the Otis Day and the Knights song of the same name which they performed in the movie.
