Magnificent Seven was an awesome experience. Antoine is methodical about his action. Every shot is thought out for cinematic value. With a little help from Stunt Coordinator Jeff Dashnaw.
I did a lot of animatics for this film. The action was going to be pretty big. In this scene it was important make it a drag race between the cycle and the plane.
This is my one and only musical. Jon was determined to bring Lin Manuels concept into the real world without losing the energy of the stage performances.
I did some beautiful boards on this show, but this scene was done fast and dirty. They sent me the previz to show me how close my boards came to the final sequence.
We met on a Friday where I got my notes for the Peyton, the VFX coordinator, and the Producers. I worked all weekend so they could have this scene by Monday.
