CABIN IN THE WOODS
CABIN IN THE WOODS
As Creative Director at WB Production sound and Video, I led the design for on-set playback graphics for The Cabin in the Woods, filmed in Canada. Our team developed a retro-analog aesthetic for the underground facility, blending aging CRT monitors, surveillance equipment, and newer digital systems. The concept was to make the facility feel as though it had operated for decades, with technology only being replaced when it broke down, creating a believable mix of old and new equipment.
The massive control room was our biggest undertaking, requiring extensive surveillance footage, monitoring systems, and operational graphics. Much of the surveillance content required careful planning and coordination during filming to ensure it matched the action taking place throughout the story. The result was a complex, functioning environment that reinforced the facility's hidden history and the film's distinctive blend of horror, science fiction, and dark comedy.
