XBOX x Forza Horizon 6
Limited Edition Controller and Headset
As a producer at MAKE, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Mutiny agency to bring this trailer for the Xbox Limited Edition Controller and Headset, inspired by the Forza Horizon 6, to life.
The project presented an exciting creative challenge. We had to ask the question, "How do we capture the boldness, energy, and dynamic design of the controller and headset in a way that feels true to the world of Forza Horizon?" From the outset, the goal was to create something that felt fast, expressive, and visually impactful, while giving the products the attention and presence they deserved.
Working closely with Mutiny, our team at MAKE translated the creative vision into a polished, high-energy trailer. A key part of my role was guiding the production across the creative and technical process.
The result is a piece that celebrates the character of the products while capturing the sense of movement, excitement, and freedom at the heart of the Forza Horizon franchise. It was a challenging and highly collaborative project, and a great opportunity to bring together creative ambition, craft, and production to deliver a distinctive product.
Below are examples of my production work and the efforts I made during this project.
Look Development Organization
In the beginning stages, I assisted the creative director in giving artistic direction and gather ideas for look development. I organized the artists’ styleframes into a cohesive, aesthetically considered presentation for the client, ensuring the work felt unified while clearly communicating the creative direction. I also structured the styleframes around two distinct themes and visual languages, creating a clear framework for exploring and presenting the different creative approaches.
Client Notes

I served as the main point of contact between the client and the artists, managing multiple rounds of creative review and feedback throughout the project. I organized and translated client notes into clear, actionable direction for the team, helping ensure feedback was understood, prioritized, and efficiently incorporated into the work.
Budget & Overage Tracking
I managed production overages resulting from additional rounds of feedback and assets that fell outside the original scope. I tracked these requests, communicated the associated costs and impacts with the client, and worked to keep approvals and expectations aligned throughout the project.
