Overview

While at Territory I had the opportunity to work on the Russo Brothers film, The Gray Man. The star-studded action thriller follows CIA Agent Sierra Six (Ryan Gosling), as he tries to escape his corrupt colleagues (Chris Evans and Regé-Jean Page), after accidentally uncovering dark agency secrets. The team created graphics for the screens and composited visuals for the body cameras, mercenaries’ vitals, tracking devices, maps, satellite imagery and CCTV footage.

Approach

For these, I researched real world military-grade software to create a technical and precise feeling for the graphics. This was critical in order to support the fast-paced, suspense-driven tone of the film.

The Gray Man

‍I was responsible for animating and tailoring designs for key moments in the film. This included various mercenary tracking UI, and laptop screens for Agent Sierra Six.
