Guild Wars 2 - Icebrood Saga Trailer

I had the great pleasure of Art Directing the new Guild Wars 2 trailer!

This was a huge collaborative effort. Director Carlos Stevens and I wanted to push for something which would stand apart from the other GW2 cinematics, while retaining that painterly, artistic approach.

As well as figuring out most of the shots and creating the colour script, I worked alongside the brilliant Damien Bajowski and Juan Pablo Roldan to bring them to life (turning the loose concepts into mattes and painting over animation frames). Honestly, they were bloody fantastic and I can't recommend them enough.

Huge love also to producer, Rhiannon Murphy, who somehow kept this thing on track, Fernando, Drew, Athena, Ekaterina, Tristan, Victor, Dalvir, Lucile, Chris, Krissy, Scott, Jonathan, Hudson, Alan, Joseph, Sergio, Scott, Spike, Sjors, Craig, Louise, Simon and everyone else who helped make this a reality <3
