Microsoft game developer Digital Anvil were developing a new game and I was asked to direct the cinematic sequences. I went to Austin, TX with storyboard/comic artist Chad Smith for two weeks to storyboard the sequences. Everything was going great and it was going to be a great project but Microsoft pulled the project out from underneath Digital Anvil's feet for reasons unknown. I had the privilege of seeing some of the game and it was looking really cool! Here is the test we did for bidding on the project (using a dialogue track which was supplied to us from Digital Anvil).

Very well done. I'd've like to have seen more of that. Really puts some life into the characters, though Trent appears thinner than he was in the in-game pics.
Trent! Very, VERY, good to see you again!
Thanks. At the time, we were doing the test, we reused some Spider-Man models. Trent is actually the meat-head bully in the Electro episode. What's funny is, this bully's model/design was originally supposed to be Harry Osborne. In the Spider-Man series, Harry is voiced by Ian Ziering. Ironically, the audio that Digital Anvil gave us to animate our test to was voiced by Ian Ziering.
