Sniper
To help build the tension and anticipation for the immersive game Sniper Ghost Warrior 2, I was hired to create this film, blending live action and CG elements to blur the lines between real and the augmented. Working with RealtimeUK every detail was planned to ensure accuracy of weapons and military special ops authenticity. The Snipers themselves were ex forces and the firearms were the real thing. I had a hand picked team and specialist equipment so we could move fast and light. We flew in. Got the shots and got home safe!In its launch weekend it had 30,000 hits.

Behind the scenes: A sniper team typically consists of a sniper and a spotter.
Both members can perform either role and often rotate. The sniper fires the shot while the spotter assists in observation of targets, atmospheric conditions and communication with other parties, including directing artillery fire and air support.
The spotter detects, observes and assigns targets and watches for the results of the shot. Using his scope he will read the wind by using physical indicators. In conjunction with the shooter, he will make accurate calculations for distance, angle, moving targets and correction for atmospheric conditions.
He provides the security of the team's immediate location, therefore he is usually armed with an assault rifle.
He also makes a good cup of tea and helps carry camera gear.
