NOW THIS IS EPIK.
DIRECTOR - VIDEOGRAPHERÂ - EDITOR
You might've heard of Ninja, but Epikwhale is arguably the greatest Fortnite player of all time. For this piece I traveled to Raleigh, NC with my producer Alex Bains to document Shane "Epikwhale" Cotton's journey through an FNCS final. I layed down the outline, directed Shane, edited, and even picked up the camera for this doozy of a project.
