GOLD WINNER
PromaxBDA North America Promotion, Marketing and Design Awards 2018
Best Program Promotional Spot (Art Direction and Design)
BRONZE WINNER
2018 Clio Entertainment Awards
Medium: Television/Streaming: Teaser
The initial concept for this teaser was originally conceived by Garrett Wagner as a great abstract metaphor for the vicious assassination of Gianni Versace.
Steve Viola picked it up and worked on the visual narrative and progression with his team at FX, as they explored the visual approach and final execution.
This was truly a team project – Amie Nguyen, Synderela Peng, Jose Medina, and Alex Yoon were instrumental in helping to realize the visuals and art direction, with Mike Parks, Charles Bergquist, and The Joelsons handling the majority of the live action shoot.
It was later edited and composited by Mike Parks, with final sound design by Echolab.
