It's 1715 and the golden age of piracy… a world where rebel pirates, collapsing shanty towns, whore houses, illegal treasure and the promise of the New World clash with the imperial forces of European civilization. Nothing less than a full-on art history mash-up of Baroque motifs, Gothic architecture and Rococo style could express this strange society, where outcasts and aristocrats alike vie for power. Using a sculptural language traditionally reserved for saints and kings, we depict a maverick society that is ultimately doomed. Beauty and death abound… as well as a skeleton or two… Inspired by: Kris Kuksi, Designed & Produced by: Imaginary Forces (IF) Directors: Michelle Dougherty, Karin Fong Art Director: Alan Williams Executive Producer: Ben Apley Lead Producer: Brian Butcher Producers: Keith Bryant, Jon Hassell Concept Illustration: Alejandro Lee, Vincent Lucido, Bernard Custodio Lead Modeler: Meats Meier Modelers: Jamin Joseph-Lackie, Margaret Dost, Odel Palmer, Aamir Karim, Justin Fields Lead Lighting & Texturing: Joseph Langmuir Camera & Previz: Kevin Ferrara CG Lighting & Texturing: Kevin Ferrara, Steven Hensley, Greg Ruane, Michael Colarik Editors: Caleb Woods, Gladys Bernadac Assistant Editor: Michael Radtke Lead Flame: Rod Basham Flame: Eric Mason Assistant Flame: Michael Radtke Coordinator: Joseph AbouSakher Production Assistants: Dominick Guglielmo, Alex Frankel, Nicole Zschiesche Design Interns: Hunter Thompson, Lisa Chen Client: STARZ Executive Producers: Jonathan Steinberg, Robert Levine, Chris Symes, Michael Bay, Brad Fuller, Andrew Form Producer: Jonathan Brytus Post-Production Supervisor: Brennan Parks Music Composer: Bear McCreary
