“Galen is a cinematic wizard. During my time working with him he produced some of the most impressive game trailers I've ever seen, showcasing an unparalleled talent for capturing the essence of a game concept and translating it to a cinematic snapshot that not only captures attention but also leaves a lasting impression with breathtaking visuals and compelling narratives. Beyond his trailer-making abilities he's been a great colleague, collaborator and friend, always able to provide invaluable artistic input and help drive the creative ambitions of our various marketing activities. He's one of the best in the business.”
