Excited to share that Tom Dey and Co Rentmeester recently spoke with Complex NTWRK about their new doc short JUMPMAN, which has its world premiere tonight at Tribeca Festival. In case you don't know, JUMPMAN tells the story of the photographer, Co Rentmeester, who created the iconic 1984 LIFE portrait of Michael Jordan that was copied by Nike and turned into one of the world’s most famous logos…Air Jordan. 40 years ago, Co Rentmeester put Michael Jordan in the sky, literally and figuratively. Jordan never came down and Co never received credit. Co’s stated goal was to create an image that people would never forget, and he succeeded beyond his wildest expectations. That said, it came at a great cost Thank you to Brendan Dunne for helping amplify Co's story and if you are in NYC, come check out the doc short at Tribeca Festival!
