Carne y Arena

Carne y Arena was the most incredible and formative experience of my career. Not only was there ground-breaking work, but it was also a major opportunity to learn by being on the ground floor with incredible creators.

Alejandro’s storytelling instincts are second-to-none, and Chivo is a fountain of creativity — and their banter and cameraderie was so inspiring and infectious.

My role was Associate Visual Effects Supervisor – combining my experience in film with real-time in the most challenging way ever. This was our first significant project, and we didn’t know what we didn’t know.

When Alejandro first visited, we thought we might be able to achieve two or three digital humans the way he was imagining. When we showed him the first prototype, his first reaction was that we’d need a lot more people.

We completed the project with twenty-one digital humans in the scene.
