The assignment

The brief.

Skiesfall produced a set of stylized intros for the sports offered at Carthage College. The production needed a visual system that could give each sport its own energy while remaining recognizably part of one campaign.

Tim joined the creative development and pre-production discussions, operated camera alongside Tim Moore, then handled editing, motion graphics, VFX, and color for the finished system.
