After Earth

SPY, San Francisco | CG Supervision, Design, Compositing

In 2012 SPY assembled a small crew of experienced designers to begin tackling the visual interface language to be used on the sci-fi Shymalan/Smith film After Earth. Dav Rauch (Avatar, Iron Man HUD guru) was hired to lead the design team, while I took on CG Supervision of the 250+ shots, and Jonathon Rothbart as VFX Supervisor. Since the show had a very long lead time before actual production started I also became intimately involved with the design process, primarily leveraging my industrial design background into creating the multi-dimensional 'frames' in which all the holographic information lived. We had around 50 people on site at SPY and collaborated on some sequences with the fine people at Pixomondo and Iloura.
