Behind the Scenes

Throw-back... Wednesday?

Inspired by the 60s monster TV shows & classic cinema of the 30s, 40s & 50s, "Before You" is a tribute to the Golden Age of Hollywood.  In collaboration with artist Cheyenne Jackson & director Nick Everhart, the project utilized everything from miniature & forced perspective sets to green screen & hand animation.

The guys really let me go all out on this one.  Beyond compositing, I had the opportunity to design & pitch initial concepts, work closely with the practical modelers & supervise on-set.  Mimicking the old driving projections & Tim Burton kookiness was harder to pinpoint than you'd think!  Check out the BTS clip below for a unique perspective on one of the coolest projects to-date.
