South Carolina Dept of Commerce: Launch to Legacy

Collaborated with Mr Wolf and agency 9Rooftops on the CG for South Carolina’s “Launch to Legacy” campaign — a series of spots starring the CEOs of BMW, Nephron Pharmaceuticals, and Sonoco as elaborate digital environments assemble around them on live-action plates shot on Red 8K with a TechnoDolly rig. Industrial robotic arms, CG vehicles, manufacturing lines, and animated 3D typography were built in Maya, brought to life in Unreal Engine, and to then be composited in Flame — each spot blending South Carolina’s geography and industry into a single surreal tableau that sold the state’s promise as a place to build.
