Sea of Thieves: Voyage of a Lifetime
Together with Matthew Cowan, I had the pleasure of co-directing a making-of documentary about Sea of Thieves - the hugely popular pirate game created by the legendary game studio Rare. Our film takes a deep dive into the untold stories surrounding the game's development, including its tough launch and subsequent triumph as a virtual community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Besides directing the film, I also took on the role of art director for the film's titles and explainer graphics, and crafted 3D sequences in Unreal engine that served as chapter titles.
