MegaFive

MegaFive was an independent production collective based in Los Angeles, working across commercial production, music videos, visual effects and animation. Founded in 2015, the boutique brought together live-action filmmaking and digital post-production to deliver projects from concept development through finishing.

Its capabilities included treatment design, VFX supervision, compositing, 2D and 3D animation, motion graphics, color grading and digital intermediate work. Its documented output focused on advertising, music and cultural campaigns, with projects combining directing, animation and post-production within a small creative partnership.

Selected work

In 2015, MegaFive co-produced the animated music video for Lindsey Stirling’s “We Are Giants,” featuring Dia Frampton, alongside Whitelist.tv. MegaFive partners Bryan Chojnowski and Grant Olin directed the video. The project is among the collective’s earliest documented productions and illustrates its work in animated music storytelling.

The studio also contributed to the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s 100th Season campaign, producing a series of six promotional visual pieces in collaboration with producer Jonathan Stein and director Eric Baldetti. Its 2016 production reel presented its live-action directing, CG animation and finishing capabilities.

MegaFive’s joint commercial activity ended around 2018–2019, with the collective having concluded active operations by 2020. Its principals subsequently pursued individual careers across directing, animation, visualization and visual effects.
