Game of Thrones (HBO trailer)

Client: Cerulean CGI & Bigstar - 2010

HBO called on BIGSTAR to create a teaser for the epic upcoming series “Game of Thrones”. A vivid creative exchange between BGSTR and HBO resulted in a concept driven by seasons changing and the mystery of the forest riddled with surprises. Cerulean CGI pulled of some amazing CG live action integration on this trailer.

Hyundai sonata 2011

Client: Your Majesty - 2010

A creative agency Your-Majesty needed a few really cool animations for the new Hyundai Sonata 2011 website launch. So myself and another CG artist Russell Boebert created 5 different versions. Very fun project and good use of Krakatoa on this one.

Dead Space 2008 - "No Known Survivors"

Client: Deep-Focus & EA

NoKnownSurvivors.com is a site that allows visitors to explore the narrative world of EA's new survival horror game, DEAD SPACE.

The "No Known Survivors" project included a massive amount of CG work. With a very, very small team of 3dsmax artists we were able to pull off 2 video game cinematic trailers and additional website content all within a short time period. This included creating 2 different environments and multiple hi rez characters. I had a major role in the completion of these projects which included lighting, shading, modeling, fluids, hair, & final compositing. This director cut was scored by a talent audio engineer Russell Boebert. He was given the task to score this cinematic trailer-01 with only a reference for what was posted online.
