Nine Inch Nails: Year Zero (2007)

For Nine Inch Nails' "Year Zero" album, we teamed with 42 Entertainment to create a sprawling alternate reality game that immersed fans in Year Zero's elaborate mythology. In addition to helping create Year Zero's complex world and working on the ARG, I provided art direction for the overall presentation of Year Zero and created many of the visual elements myself. Below is a selection of elements I created for Year Zero.

The "Survivalism" music video explored the ubiquitous surveillance in the world of Year Zero, and was peppered with elements of Year Zero's mythology, and subtle clues and secrets that tied in to the Year Zero ARG. Co-directed with Alex Lieu and Trent Reznor.
