OFFICIAL MOVIE WEBSITE & DIGITAL CONTENT 20th Century Fox Agency: Ludomade The Problem: The Fantastic Four reboot was designed to be a grittier and more grounded take on the classic Marvel story. So leading up to the premiere, Fox wanted to introduce the new take on the characters and generate buzz about the reboot's unique mythology. The Solution: I created various pieces of content for the movie's website and digital campaign, including Character Introductions and a Military Briefing powerpoint presentation that we "leaked" on Slideshare.net without indicating it was a movie promotion. |

Harvey Allen (Tim Blake Nelson) is a Department of Defense scientist overseeing the government's program to harness the power of the Fantastic Four team.

THE FANTASTIC WORLD - OFFICIAL MOVIE WEBSITE
Fox wanted to highlight four specific aspects of the Fantastic World. I wrote the copy for each web page:

REED RICHARD'S GARAGE -- the place where his scientific experiments began
THE CONTAINMENT SUITS -- the suits the four team members wear to help control and harness their new superpowers
THE ALTERNATE DIMENSION -- the realm where the Fantastic Four gain their superpowers
