LA-based Tool has added GMUNK, a globally renowned live-action director and motion designer, to its roster.
Known for being a visual innovator and using in-camera techniques to bring visual flair to commercial content, GMUNK has directed commercial work for clients such as Audi, Apple, Nike, Adidas, Samsung, Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Meta, Mercedes, Sony, Dolby, HP, Adobe, Infiniti, HBO, and others. Recent projects include When Things Go Right for Uber Freight, Pure Imagination for Audi, Spark the Next for Maserati, and the key visual and live-action campaign for the TRON Lightcycle Run attraction at Disney’s Magic Kingdom.
In addition to commercial work, GMUNK is involved in features, helping create the design look for UI systems for the upcoming Tron movie and was responsible for the Windows 10 Desktop Wallpaper.
“GMUNK brings a unique and immediately identifiable visual flair to his work that brands love,” said Nancy Hacohen, Managing Director of Tool. “He’s been doing groundbreaking work for years, and we’re excited to connect even more brands with his visionary talent and marry his innovative spirit with Tool’s creative technology department to explore ways to use AI and other tech in the production of commercial content.”
Leveraging creative technology to support his visual storytelling, GMUNK also seeks ways to apply his foundation in motion design to new mediums such as AI, experiential, AR, and NFTs. His work has been exhibited at Christie’s, Sotheby’s, and in fine-art galleries around the world. His projection-mapping and robotic video BOX is one of the most viral short films ever made, winning prestigious awards including the Cannes Grand Prix and Siggraph’s Best in Show.
“I’m excited to work with Tool, who has a reputation for living at the cutting edge of fusing traditional production with new technologies,” said GMUNK. “Moving forward, I’m looking forward to working with them to connect with brands that want to push the boundaries of what’s visually possible in commercial productions.”
