    Chad McMillan Makes Cameo in New Far Cry 5 Video Game Teaser Trailer "Baptism", thanks to Ubisoft and DDB Paris

    Stoked to share the release of Ubisoft’s new Far Cry 5 video game teaser trailer, “Baptism” today.  Working with creative agency DDB Paris, we shot this commercial just outside of Kamloops last year.

    Here I play a heavily armed cult member on guard on the bank overseeing the cult’s baptism proceedings, making my real cameo around the 2 minute mark. 

    Despite my personal generally spiritual and (I’d suggest) peaceful nature, a lot of casting and production teams do like to see me exploring some darker and heavier roles with my look, and this one is no exception.

    Kudos to Director of Photography Khalid Mohtaseb, Director Martin de Thurah, and the rest of the production team, who were all great to work with..

    Let me know what you think of the piece, I feel it turned out amazing!

    AI matters to me less as a novelty than as a change in the economics of experimentation. Individuals and small teams can now test certain ideas faster and more cheaply than was recently practical.
