> 2008 :: WILD BUNCH - Animated Feature :: Animation Lab, US / Israel

:: Directing and previs authoring. Created short super-previs demo for an upcoming Animated Feature. Advanced image complexity featuring textured models allowed more precise estimation of time required to visually percieve each and every shot, which resulted in very accurate timing. Secondly - colors, lighting, and textures allowed accurate placement of "visual mass" within layout - making it easier during editing process to provide visual fluency in storytelling.

> 2007 :: THE RETRIEVAL - SF Action Thriller :: Superprevis, UK/US

:: Directing and previs authoring. This pitch-ready super-previs features specific visual solutions in scenes that are pivotal for story development. Orchestration of movement, cameras, music, and editing - are setting the unique visual language for the film. Such "visual bravery" that works - can be obtained only via relatively low-cost experimentation in super-previs stage, or with expensive "trial and error" camera coverage on live action set, followed with long editing sessions.

> 2006 :: SAMURAI STAR - Mocup Trailer Cinematics :: Kinetic Impulse, UK

:: Directing, layout, camera animation, editing, and scratch sound editing. Objective was to create fighting sequence demo that can serve as pitch material for fantasy martial arts film, and look like combat-game game cinematic. Camera coverage during fight had to be directed in way which will allow later live action film shoot using normal crane/dolly equipment with minimal intervention in post. Source Motion Data originated from Centroid 3D Studio, and was edited/prepared by Richard Widgery of Kinetic Impulse.
