We won an Emmy! I couldn’t be prouder of the team behind the Spider-Noir main title. Awards may have individual names attached to them, but work like this is only possible because of the collective talent, dedication, and trust of so many people.

I feel incredibly lucky to be part of the team at Digital Kitchen. Mason, for your leadership and unwavering zen attitude. Ally and Matthew, for everything you do behind the scenes to bring incredible opportunities our way. AJ, Rachel, and John, for being such talented and awesome people to work alongside. Arik, for your beautiful designs. Daniel, Christian, Sam, Nader, Victor, and Nayoung for all the hard work and care you put into making this project look incredible. Carrie, our publicist, for all your work promoting both Spider-Noir and Smoke. 

And a huge thank you to Oren Uziel and everyone behind Spider-Noir for trusting us with this world and giving us the freedom to put our creative fingerprint on it.

To my parents and sisters, thank you for supporting my creativity long before it became a career. And to my wife, Vannika, thank you for the patience, encouragement, and everything that comes with being married to a workaholic.

More than anything, I’m grateful to make fun work alongside people I genuinely love working with.

This one belongs to all of us. ❤️@spidernoirprime crew:

Two Emmy nominations this year for Smoke and Spider-Noir! It’s still a little surreal that I get to do this for a living.

I’ve been lucky enough to find collaborators who care deeply about making great work, but who are also kind, generous, and supportive people. That combination is rarer than it should be. The best creative teams don’t just push you to become a better artist. They bring out the best in you as a person, too.

I’m thankful for my parents, who encouraged my creativity long before any of this was a career, and especially for my wife, Vannika, who has been my biggest cheerleader through all of it. Having people who believe in you when there’s no award or recognition attached to it means everything.

I won my first Emmy for Godfather of Harlem in 2020, but it happened during the COVID lockdowns, so I watched the ceremony from home like everyone else. So tonight will actually be my first time attending the Emmys!

So regardless of whose name gets called, I’m going to enjoy this one. 

To have two projects recognized in the same year, alongside people whose work I’ve admired for years, is already something I’m incredibly proud of. Awards come and go, but getting to make work you believe in with people you respect, and then getting to share moments like this with the people you love, is the part I don’t want to take for granted.

Tonight I’m just happy to be there, celebrate everyone’s work, see some old friends, hopefully make some new ones, and take it all in.

See you tonight. And if you see me there, please come say hi! by @peterp4k

I remember making the first motion tests last year to animate style frames by @arikweiss during the pitch and thinking how amazing it would be to see the whole thing animated. And now here we are!

I had the pleasure of art directing this title sequence. One of the biggest challenges was staying true to the 1930s aesthetic without over-designing or over-animating it through a modern motion graphics lens. The toughest part was figuring out the web/glass transition system and how it should move and evolve throughout the sequence, which @duda_motion expertly solved. Rather than going with the obvious approach of shattered glass floating through space, the “webs” needed to behave like fractured mirror edges, with each plane containing or reflecting fragments of a scene while still remaining interconnected as part of a larger whole instead of isolated shards.

Huge congrats to @digitalkitchen, @amazonmgmstudios, @sonypicturestv, Oren Uziel, and everyone involved in bringing this to life.

An inside look at the making of Digital Kitchen‘s Smoke title sequence for Apple TV. 

Many burn studies went into creating these object transformations. Several props were made in house and from the actual show. 

Much went into the edit and post effects to create the look of microfiche readers, typographic distortions and forensics photography. 🔥

When an arson investigator begrudgingly teams up with a police detective, their race to stop two arsonists ignites a twisted game of secrets and suspicions. 

Smoke, featuring main titles by Digital Kitchen, and an original main title theme by @thomyorke, now showing on @appletv

I had the pleasure of working alongside the practical effects team, crafting the overlays and handling animation and compositing on the digital side after the shoot.

LIFE UPDATE📣: Got married in January! A traditional Khmer wedding with more outfit changes than a designer picking a font. I believe in working to live, not living to work, but sometimes I forget and every now and then I need a reminder to step away and actually enjoy life, especially the parts spent with the people I love. Because at the end of the day, it’s not the hours we work, but the moments we cherish that truly matter. by @peterp4k

It’s always special getting to revisit this project—this time to refresh the collages for the Season 4 intro of Godfather of Harlem. I first worked on this main title about six years ago, and so much has changed since then, both in the world and in my own life. Coming back to it now feels a bit like catching up with an old friend.

Godfather of Harlem MT - Season 4 updates. Created by @digitalkitchen 
Every season, I have the chance to update the main title to reflect the evolving story and new characters of Godfather of Harlem. It’s become a ritual of sorts—returning to this world, layering in what’s new while staying true to the spirit of what we built.
