Game & 3D Co-Development
Halo Infinite
Principal animation and cinematic leadership on one of gaming's most iconic franchises — spanning gameplay pre-visualization, cinematic animation, VFX, and workflow tooling for a team of hundreds.
The Challenge
Halo Infinite was a massive open-world reinvention of the franchise, requiring cinematic quality animation across campaign cutscenes, gameplay systems, and multiplayer — all on a proprietary engine with a team spanning multiple studios and hundreds of contributors.
Our Solution
Will served as Principal Animator with responsibilities spanning cinematic animation, gameplay pre-visualization, conceptual animation, cinematic workflow and software feature development leadership, and VFX pre-visualization. This meant shaping the visual language of in-game cinematics while simultaneously building and improving the tools and pipelines the rest of the animation team depended on.
