Creative studio The-Artery has brought Emmy Award-nominated Flame artist Steven Miller aboard its team. With a career spanning nearly two decades, Miller has among his credits such film titles as Avatar, Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Pirates of the Caribbean. Over the years, Miller’s mastery of his craft led him to roles at studios including The Mill, Electric Theatre Collective and MPC, amassing over 50 feature film credits as well as numerous television and commercial projects.
Vico Sharabani, CEO of The-Artery, noted, “Steven has a deep understanding of the creative power at the intersection of technology and artistry, which is evident across all of his work. The-Artery has a foundation of multifaceted creative talent and Steven’s work across epic features and stunning commercials is a great fit for our roster of artists and directors.”
Miller added, “Vico has created a very deliberate culture of creativity at The-Artery and having already had the experience of working alongside him on Mercedes' ‘New Light,’ his dedication to the creative process is evident. I’m excited to join the team to continue to grow The-Artery’s creative footprint across commercials, television and film.”
Miller began his career at Hydraulx, where he worked on films including Skyline and Battle Los Angeles, while studying at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood, Calif. In 2017, he partnered with Droga5 on the 2020 Super Bowl commercial “Jeep Groundhog Day,’ leading to multiple Cannes Lions and an Emmy nomination for “Outstanding Commercial.”
