Patrick Clair is director, creative director, and motion designer. He’s best known for creating title sequences, commercials and design films that bring worlds to life and draw audiences into compelling stories and fascinating subject matter. He has won and Emmy award for Outstanding Main Title Design, for True Detective.
In his young 20's he was very interested in After Effects and wanted to learn more about motion design from that. After graduating he was hired by MTV to make promos splitting his time between directing live action and motion graphics. However he wanted to tell story and not just make something that would look nice with no meaning, so after a year and a half he left MTV.
He later began working with television and sketch comedy, for the group The Chaser and the tv show Hungry Beast. While working on this tv show, Patrick and his team created two, six to nine minutes lony motion designs every week. There is where Patrick was able to practice his skills and gain much experience with after effects and motion design.
After some time working, here and working with other companies he decided to start his own studio, which he called Antibody.
True detective was where Patrick was able to gain a lot of recognition. After True Detective Patrick kept improving. In 2016 and 2017 he directed title sequences for Westworld and American Gods that are some of the most amazing things ever created for television. True Detective made such a large impact that Patrick’s work was in such great demand that he needed even more support to accomplish it all. And so he built up a team of world-class designers, modelers, compositors, editors, storyboard artists and animators to help.
