Commissioned as a sponsored video from Bethesda Softworks to promote the release of Wolfenstein: The New Colossus. Bethesda wanted to create a video that was similar in style to 70/80s action animations such as He Man.

I worked with a producer to come up with several concept ideas based on source material we were shown and provided. We used an animation studio (Venturia Animation Studios) to produce the style and look, and had a large range of voice actors and music composers to assist on the project. It was a great success on the channel and has over 1 million views.

I also edited this piece from animatic stage and also developed the sound design and mix. Using Premiere and Audition.

 
 
 

B.J. Blazkowicz and the Freedom Fighters fight to save the American dream against the fascist Nazi War Machine. With his rag-tag crew of brains, brawn and a lovable half-cat-half-monkey, they’ll show General Engel and Blitzmensch the true meaning of America!
