Bucket list project. It’s one of my greatest TV honors to have not only worked on one of the greatest scripted dramas of all time (THE WIRE), but I lent consulting and visual effects production to the greatest scene, within the greatest episode, within the greatest season.
I was thrilled to produce the visual effects for the epic shoot-out scene in which Omar and Donnie squared off against Snoop, Chris, and Michael. Absolute TV History! I had produced FX Scenes for Season 4 as well, but the unforgettable shoot-out pushing Omar to leap from the 4th story apartment window still holds up as a career moment to remember.

Fun fact: This was the first of two projects that I was blessed to collaborate with the late great Michael K. Williams. RIP OMAR. RIP MKW.
