VFX for online film featuring Justin Timberlake & NBA all-stars
The NBA Memphis Grizzlies just released the new short film by director Craig Brewer, entitled “Mike Conley: Our Conductor”. I’m proud to have been a small part of it, creating video effects on a very tight deadline ahead of its premiere.
From the Memphis newspaper The Commercial Appeal:
The Grizzlies wooed free agent Mike Conley on Monday with a Craig Brewer-directed short film on the team’s website that featured Justin Timberlake — and added a third G-word to the team’s vocabulary.
Grit and grind, make way for grace.
The two-minute, 44-second film brought together basketball and the arts, with Grizzlies players Tony Allen, Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol co-starring with ballet dancers and jookers, the Grizz Line drum line and a symphony orchestra.
