PHOTO GALLERY: "Defiance" Gateway Arch photo shoot images

Back in October, I was commissioned to do a photo shoot of the Gateway Arch in St. Louis for Syfy / NBC Universal's television series/video game entitled "Defiance". The digitally enhanced images of the Arch are now rolled out in all of the promotional artwork on signs, billboards and posters for both the TV series and the video game.

The series and game storyline is about earth after an alien invasion, centered on a post-invasion and 'terraformed' St. Louis. The city, where the only remaining sign of the past is the surviving Gateway Arch, is renamed 'Defiance'. The game and TV series will be intertwined as the story progresses.

I added a special section of the St. Louis photo gallery consisting of images captured during the "Defiance" photo shoot.

The video game will be released next week (April 2), and the television series will debut on Syfy on April 15.
