Friends of Sophia

In a dystopian future, citizens live and work in Company towers a thousand stories tall, bound by a strict contract to build robotics for a far-off war. Unsanctioned vices, especially relationships with the androids they build, are severely punished.

I worked closely with the creator, Alden Peters, on the post production for Friends of Sophia. My work included compositing effects onto existing footage, assisting in the creation of CGI environments as well as general compositing clean up.

When creating the CGI environments, it was important to keep the thematic elements of the film in mind. Every building, pipe and holographic billboard had a purpose that connected to the story overall. Alden wanted the space to feel grounded and alive. The level of detail needed to make such a large place come alive was what, in my opinion, took the environments to the next level.
