LOVE CHILD 사이버 사랑 | Feature Documentary
2014
LOVE CHILD 사이버 사랑 is a documentary film directed by Valerie Veatch about Internet policy development. Centered in South Korea. Love Child follows the story of the first case where ‘internet addiction’ as a mental illness was cited as a legal defense and looks at contemporary Korean gaming culture in search of harmony in an increasingly immersive media environment, where virtual is a new reality.
Love Child premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2014 & aired on HBO starting July 2014. The visual design was created in collaboration with Ryan Whittier-Hale.

Visual Effects Director / Cinematography
I spent two weeks filming in South Korea visiting immersive gaming environments and internet cafes, interviewing game designers, and filming city life in and around Seoul. I also made a series of Depthkit sequences to illustrate the complicated convergence of real & virtual worlds at the heart of the film. -
