Overview
A World Cup launch has to read as authentic football to a global audience before it reads as anything else. The work spanned casting and talent, coordinating the motion capture sessions so the movement carried a player's weight rather than an actor's, and running the stunt side where the two met. Creative consulting on movement ran through all of it, and I appeared on camera as part of the mocap work.
