Environment Art Direction

Elysium, 2012
Image Engine
2013 VES finalist Environment Art Direction and Design

I led the design and visual RnD at Image Engine for the environments of the film project Elysium. The core members on the design team were myself, Mitchell Stuart, Ravi Bansal and Ron Turner. I contributed design direction, keyart, keyframe paintovers and blocking layout models.

Our work on the project was nominated for a Visual Effects Society award for environment design.
