A trailer for a new boardgame.

In the near future a rain of meteors hit the Earth, changing the landscapecompletely and destroying almost all signs of civilization. A few years after the impact, the remaining survivors have started to gather in the ruins of cities where the effects of the meteors have been less severe to try to rebuild what is left and start a new society.
Wulfhorn Games asked us to create a visually attractive trailer for their crowdfunding on Kickstarter, as well as for online and offline promotion.
A lot of beautiful artwork had already been created for the cards of the board game. It was important that these featured as attractively as possible in the intro. The artwork was perfect for experimenting with AI animation.
So, the entire intro was set in motion using AI tools like Runway and Volumax 7. The rest of the trailer was made with Cinema 4D and After Effects. This shows that all these animation variants can come together and enhance each other.
A short trailer that encapsulates the storyline, all components of the game, and the essence of the gaming experience.
