Murals[]
Nate was asked to create a few illustrative story murals for each of the main character's for Dreamworks new movie Rise of the Guardians. Production Designer Patrick Hanenberger had an idea of establishing each character's background story in the form of a mural. In doing so they began to not only develop each characters shape and color language, and capturing bits of each characters background story from the book series, The Guardians of Childhood from William Joyce.
