This is the first week of the project and I’m leaning towards the idea of doing a game promo. I’ve always loved fantasy game titles, so I looked for games in my favorite genre for reference. Considering the workload, we won’t attempt to make overly complicated game promos, but rather focus on making short and delicate content.
After we decided the direction of our work, we started looking for the right partner. We needed partners for 2D animation and storyboarding. Within a week’s time, we found a partner. I worked with two students from 2D animation and two students from 3D animation.
After this, I searched for a large number of stylistic reference images about characters and scenes. Through these reference charts we were able to more quickly determine our design style and direction.
About the style of the game characters
These are the character designs we are interested in
About the style of game promos
I’ve always loved the art style of the game 【Identity V】, so I wanted to create a similar dark style promo. Also, I appreciate the art design of【 Brawl Star】. It uses many delicate, childish and cute elements to enrich the picture, and I learned a lot.
