Coalesce - OFFF 2023 Opening Film

Coalesce - OFFF 2023 Barcelona

I co-directed 'Coalesce' the opening film for the OFFF 2023 design festival in Barcelona. Collaboration was at the heart of this project. Five Creative Directors across Framestore's three US studios (NYC, Chicago, LA) came together to conceptualize, write, develop and create a film that centers on the idea of letting go of control, and the beautiful and unexpected things that can happen when you do. It was important to us to bring together the entire US design team and their different artistic styles and disciplines.

In addition to directing, I designed and animated several shots and sequences within the film. I also assisted with previz, camera animation, lighting, and compositing on several other moments throughout the piece.
