Mr. Peabody & Sherman Int'l. Trailers

The international trailers that I designed and animated the interstitial titles for that teased the concept of Dr. Who and time travel, relating it to Mr. Peabody's WABAC machine.  The decision to tease Dr. Who for the international theatrical campaign was because Dr. Who is better known overseas.

Epic :30 TV Spot

The "Ice Age 4" opening pedigree graphic in this spot was a lot harder to create than it looks! I needed to re-arrange the character elements, change the aspect ratio of the frame, add water (seamlessly) and track the iceberg element to add the Ice Age title. Whoof! I also creatively directed the graphics team at Toy Box on this spot.

Looper: The Science of Time Travel - DVD Featurette

A DVD Featurette included on the Looper  DVD.  This piece features interviews with writer/director Ryan Johnson, Brian Clegg, author of "How To Build a Time Machine", and the cast including Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Willis and Emily Blunt. I was very pleased with how the graphics and titles came out.

Never Let Me Go - Domestic Trailer

"Never Let Me Go" is the film version of Kazuo Ishiguro's novel which TIME magazine named as "One of the best novels of the decade".  This is the Domestic Trailer I produced for Fox Searchlight.  I wrote the copy (which Fox Searchlight used in the poster campaign as well) and designed the graphics and main title seen in the trailer.  The film has been well praised for its cast, directing, and deeply felt performances.  An extremely compelling film about young lives cut short in a not-too-distant dystopian future.

Moomins and the Comet Chase - Theatrical Trailer

A sweet, yet offbeat animated film from Finland originally made in the 70's and restored in 2010 as a stereoscopic 3D film and released theatrically in Finland.  I produced the trailer, created the  Stereoscopic 3D graphics (this is the 2D version), and wrote the copy. Max von Sydow narrates the feature.
