AS Monaco forward Folarin Balogun is the star of an advertising campaign in Menton

On October 29, the Stade Lucien Rhein in Menton hosted the final filming of Verizon’s Next Level Series, a campaign blending sports and media on an international scale. The production starred American international footballer Folarin Balogun, who currently plays as a striker for AS Monaco.

Directed by American filmmaker Conrad Golovac, known for his work with brands like Adidas, Barbie, and Pepsi, the project focused on Balogun’s journey and his insights into the game. Filming was produced by JJ Castillo of the For Soccer agency, with full support from ORBIS Production’s production department, a film production company based in Milan and Paris and led by executive producer Mike Lisjak.

This collaboration brought together top talent to create content with global resonance, further highlighting the appeal of the French Riviera as a premier location for international film and media projects.

The campaign will be launched in January. Attached photos, copyright ORBIS Production.
