Co-directed with Alan Williams in 2010, Empire follows an imagined society where costume becomes a language of vanity, pride, and control. Practical fabrication, performance, compositing, and 3D work build its unsettling world. The film formed the centerpiece of my MFA thesis at SCAD, exploring how surrealist ideas can create memorable stories and visual identities.
