CREATIVE DIRECTOR VFX

Meow Wolf • "Convergence Station"

Wieden+Kennedy + Biscuit Filmworks + Absolute Post

As a member of the W+K creative team, I contributed to the concept, the look of the worlds, and even created some new characters. Despite having an outside VFX vendor, I was also the VFX conductor keeping this train on the tracks. Well….mostly on the tracks.

I can be good to have around because I'm able to help creatively solve legal requests or sudden changes without letting things get too watered down. This can be especially valuable on projects featuring found footage where you often need to change a location or alter someones appearance.
