Studio Wildcard

Studio Wildcard

Studio Wildcard came in against a pre-launch deadline needing narrative cutscenes — the cinematics that play over a game's loading sequence, carrying the story forward while the next area loads in the background.

Five tonally distinct celebrity-fronted PSA concepts for a wildfire home-hardening campaign, built and iterated across six weeks using generative-AI image tooling — photo-real comedy, black-and-white sports comic, retro rock poster, heroic key art, and a buddy-comedy storyboard, all from a single brief.

St Johns Bridge — Portland aerial panoramas

The St Johns Bridge is the Portland landmark that photographs badly from the ground. Gothic towers, a green that reads differently in every light, and no single viewpoint that holds the towers, the span and the setting at once. In October 2021, in the week the colour peaked, Gavin flew it. Thirteen finished spheres came out, each one 22,878 pixels across. Nobody asked for them. Nobody has seen them.

Landscape Gigapixels

Look at Angkor Wat, then push in, and the strangler-fig roots pouring over a carved doorway resolve down to individual fibres. Look at the whole bay at Railay, then push in, and there are people on towels. Ten places, four continents, one method, no client. This is the practice underneath every commissioned gigapixel job in the portfolio, and none of it has ever been on the site.

Hotel Maya, Long Beach — gigapixel sliding wall

A hotel on the Long Beach waterfront is built around one view: the harbour, the skyline, and the Queen Mary sitting across the water. Close the conference-wing walls for an event and the lobby loses all of it. So the Arya Group, the architects, commissioned the view as an object. A 180-degree gigapixel panorama, printed and mounted on the sliding walls, with the harbour running across the panels and the ship legible at one end.

An American Symphony — Benaroya Hall

For a Grammy-winning composer's benefit concert at Benaroya Hall, the full width of the stage carried a single photograph behind an eighty-piece orchestra and a children's choir. The composer supplied the exact length of every piece. Each image was rendered as one unbroken move, slow enough that nobody registers it as motion, timed so that the crescendo and the arrival on a hidden detail land in the same second. It is the only performance credit in the portfolio.
