About
I was the 2D Lead on this trailer promoting the boxing match between Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn, sons of British boxing legends and famous rivals, Chris Eubank Sr. and Nigel Benn. The spot did double duty by also promoting the upcoming game from SNK: Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves.
I attended the shoot, briefed and led the 2D team, liaised with the 3D leads, and personally developed and composited the final sequence where the ‘void’ and ‘game’ worlds collide.
It was an epic post-production effort. 5 weeks from tech recce to delivery. 2.5 weeks from edit lock to delivery. 130 shots. Epic.
Update: we got 5 stars on industry site, David Reviews!
