by | Sep 15, 2008

Looking for a team to design high-tech computer interfaces and spy gadgetry, Dean Devlin (executive producer)and Mark Franco (visual effects producer) tasked Twisted Media with interactive graphic design work and visual effects for Electric Entertainment’s ‘Leverage’, a television series on TNT. It was a perfect fit. The Twisted Media team’s expertise in a variety of media, from interactive computer simulations to 3D animation and compositing, came in handy during a tight production schedule. The pilot was shot in Chicago during the fall of 07, was greenlit by TNT in Spring ’08, production went from June through November 2008, and ‘Leverage’ premiered that December. Season highlights include:
  • Computer screen design and interactive programming
  • iPhone, Smartphone, PDA & mini-computer on-screen design & programming
  • Multiple monitor setups, video walls and projection setups
  • Touchscreens and interactive set pieces
  • Video Editing & compositing of inserts and vfx shots
The ‘Leverage’ series premiere was the most viewed pilot in TNT’s history, and the show found a dedicated fanbase.
