Anduril Industries

I got to work with a small team at Anduril Industries on a product launch video for their Barracuda-M line and Copperhead. This was something very different from the company usually does so it was an honor to be able to work on such a unique project.

I had the privilege to direct, art direct, write, storyboard, previz, key frame art and do the matte paintings for the Barracuda video. This was truly a team effort and I don't think this would have been possible given our time frame if it was not for the amazing and knowledgeable time listed below!

Jen Bucci- Head of Design

Alex Johnson- Producer

Joel Adams- Final animation shots and Compositing

Tiffany Shen- Motion graphics and end title design

Jacqueline DiGirolamo- Barracuda sticker design/ newspaper art

Sean Campos- Editor, Sound design and Composer(Original music)
