Great Guns Signs Morten Vinther
Aug. 09, 2024
Great Guns today announces the signing of Danish director, writer, and VFX supervisor Morten Vinther to its roster for global representation.
Previously a creative director at The Mill, Morten is known for pushing the boundaries of technology in the gaming realm. Stand out pieces in his portfolio include dynamic CG-driven commercials for Sony PlayStation’s ‘The Last of Us Part II’, Morefun Studios ‘Arena Breakout’, and EA/Koei Tecmo’s ‘Wild Hearts’, as well as the opening cinematic for Respawn’s ‘Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’. His meticulous approach to his craft has earned him acclaim at award shows across the globe, including Ciclope, Clio, Shots, AICP, and AEAF.
Whether working with real or synthetic characters, Morten is a master at capturing palpable emotion on screen, taking care to understand each one’s motivations and desires in context. For his gritty and eerie ‘Arena Breakout: Winner Takes All’ project, Morten cast a number of former marine corps members and brought a Navy Seal specialist on set to consult on weapon handling and choreography, striving to curate the most authentic experience for gamers.
Next up in Morten’s pipeline is an interactive project in which the audience gets to choose their own adventure.
Morten Vinther commented:
“I’m very excited and honoured to be joining the amazing team at Great Guns. I’ve been a huge fan of their work for the longest time. Working with Michel is a dream come true and I can’t wait to get stuck in and create some beautiful stories together!”
Michel Waxman, managing executive producer at Great Guns commented:
“It was Morten’s technical expertise that first got me excited but it’s the emotional depth and detail he brings to his world building and character development (both real life actors or otherwise) that got me excited to champion his storytelling.”
