SIFF - Light The SIFF Up
While working at We Are Royale in Seattle, I worked as a animator and compositor on this incredibly fun montage piece to serve as a promotional tool and opening titles for the 2016 edition of the Seattle International Film Festival. Working with a pre approved edit that intermixed famous movie clips with shot footage at the historic Cinema Egyptian, I worked on rotoscoping, re-coloring, re-lighting, and adding in 3D tracked elements into those famous movie scenes to make the cuts between our shot footage seamless. This project was one of the few where every day we found ourselves laughing out loud while working. Adding popcorn into Godzilla's hands. Balloons behind Darth Vader. Projecting lights on mating penguins. This was one of the few projects in my career that was as much fun for us behind the computer as it was for those in the cinema seats.
