Apex Season 8 Trailer (2021)
The Mill LA – Crowd Supervisor
A very fun and violent spot for the season 7 launch of Apex Legends with crowds being blown up with successively large destruction. A lot of close work with FX and animation to ensure that crowds felt anchored to the rest of the world.

Apex Season 6 Trailer (2020)
The Mill LA – Performance Capture
A fun collaboration with the Apex team while quarantined. We needed to have 12 characters performance captured while in lockdown and I was able to step in with my Xsens Link suit to help out. In the end we shot a full day remotely over Teams with live capture stream where I played each of the characters in their respective roles. After the shoot was complete, all capture was processed, packaged and delivered for final animation.

Apex Season 2 Trailer (2019)
The Mill LA – Crowd Supervisor
My team and I were brought in late in the day to support the animation team with their flock of flying beasties. Animating the number that had been requested wasnt feasible so crowds stepped in to free up the animation team for more hero work. We built out a library of flying agents that utilised Golaem’s flocking toolset to believably navigate the 3d environment. Avoiding rock formations, building and the occasional Leviathan.
Facebook – Mom’s & Dad’s (2019)
The Mill LA – 3d Lead
This was a very poignant spot for Facebook highlighting the relationship between social media and parents. We rebuilt a major MLB stadium and filled with crowd to help broaden the scope for the events shown in the commercial.
