Motion graphic art director, designer, and co-writer on the cinematic launch video for Marathon, Bungie's AAA team-based extraction shooter. Directed by Harmony Korine and Sam Goldwater, with music by Son Lux and Poppy.

We set out to capture the emotional and interpersonal narratives inherent to a single round of gameplay, presented through a cinematic lens.



Goldwater and I collaborated end-to-end: shaping the pitch, developing the action around Bungie's objectives, and creating early concept art.

In production, I directed concept artists and motion designer Martin Aggerholm, while designing and animating select shots. The "Game of Life" coda was generated using a custom program I built with Claude Code.
