StarWars Redemption - Trailer (Fan Made)

Hello folks ! My fan-made game demo Star Wars Redemption is Live. Yep. Everyone waited long enough so here it is : Also, if you want to explore the wonderful world of CG art, there are a lot of worth-to-follow artists and the image quality is always great ! About the cinematic now ! Here’s is probably the most challenging part we did for the project : animation. But it was pleasant, and a really heavy blast of experience. This was originally an idea Thomas Chaumel & I had this winter, we wanted to push the animation of these characters a bit further than game cycles. Working from a keyframed camera angle doesn’t offer to animate in all views, but in another hand you’re not forced to check what’s behind the character and it’s kind of a cool thing. Also, since your character movemet is captured by a camera in motion, you have to be really careful with any animation arcs and curves between frames, you can achieve this by using g-ink (what we did for most shots) or using the new ghosts from akeytsu (they take account of camera transforms ;)). And I definitely loved using is for the “fairy“ shot (lots of curves everywhere, dang !) We’ve made it without any final cut in mind, but only ideas of shots we had from time to time (we have a big trello board full of ideas ^^ We released a few here =)) Renders were all made in realtime using Unreal Engine 4 or Marmoset Toolbag 4 Animation was made using akeytsu (with pleasure as always) VFX, set dress, were most of the time made in unreal and some time on 3dsmax or akeytsu (but this was quite rare, it was more used for blocking out the main shapes & features) Modeling was made with 3dsMax & ZBrush Each texture was carefully handpainted in 3DCoat You can learn more about the trailer here : May the Force be with you, and... ...A BIG THANK YOU for bringing so much love to this project, Charlie McShane from Familly Bovine/EcksToo was right : we wouldn’t have made this without your encouragements, you can tell your friends you’ve helped making this demo, be proud of it, it’s something that brings back faith in humanity during these dark times.
