Together For Implementation #COP27 [Commercial/CNN]

Role: VFX Supervisor, Additional Editor (Versioning)
Production: CNN International / Koala FX
Stage: ARRI Stage London – Virtual Production

A high-impact commercial created for COP27, shot entirely on the ARRI Stage in London using Unreal Engine 5 and real-time virtual production workflows. I worked as VFX Supervisor, overseeing the technical execution and creative integration of fluid simulations delivered by Koala FX, and contributed to editorial versioning and final delivery.

The piece was cut in Adobe Premiere Pro, with additional compositing and cleanup in After Effects. This project marked my first encounter with UE5 in a production environment, and it was a revelation. Seeing cinematic storytelling come alive through real-time environments and interactive lighting workflows completely reshaped my creative trajectory.

This work made me fall in love with real-time storytelling and pushed me to dive deeper into virtual production and cinematic design in Unreal Engine.
