PREMISE
This is PS1-era game concept trailer, a Knight must venture out into unknown lands, in search of the lost Princess. Little did he know, manipulated by natural forces unbenownst to him, he must now slay the Princess to save his kingdom.
INTENTION
Heavily inspired by Elden Ring (which I was obsessed with at the time), I wanted a lore heavy trailer that felt like there was more to tell than the surface level. It is filled with details that only you would spot if you pause and squint, and it would invite you to get lost in a fantasy world.
DIFFICULTIES
This was an incredibly tough project to make. Art block after art block, burn out, and just sick of looking at this project. A lot of things weren't working, and a lot of things were thrown onto the cutting room floor.
The designs were also made between blender and C4D, which made it hard to establish a style. Luckily it came out cohesive, but without compositing, it would've looked disjointed and confusing.

END
In the end, I'm proud of what I've accomplished. It was my biggest project to date, and I learnt a lot from my mistakes. I'm probably still learning from them now.
