Monumental CG martial arts battle launches Netease’s inaugural international e-sports tournament.
Final Frontier, director HANZOHANZO and CGI studio Sehsucht created the launch film for Naraka Championship, the live e-sports tournament for players of the new Naraka: Bladepoint game.
Naraka: Bladepoint is a battle royale PC game launched in August 2021 by 24 Entertainment under technology company NetEase. Taking place against the backdrop of the battle between two ancient gods – Sunwing and Moonbane – the game tells the story of heroes from all over the world coming to the legendary Morus Isle to compete for the immortal mask.
The trailer introduces us to Viper Ning, a blademaster of Kunlun, who meditates in her dojo, visualising prospective opponents in ethereal dreamscapes, before realising her destiny is to duel with the warrior monk Tian Hai. As a storm rages, the two exchange fierce blows on the gargantuan back of Moonbane, writhing between the swoops and dives of a colossal, flaming Sunwing. The film ends on an image of the two massive beasts poised for battle, indicating an imminent clash between the warriors of the worlds.
Final Frontier produced a fantasy epic for OPPO to promote its new Reno Ace 2 phone, in collaboration with 2019 League of Legends World Championship-winning team, FunPlusX. The film was directed by Hans-Christoph Schultheiss, backed by Hamburg CG powerhouse, Sehsucht.
The 30-second spot features a mountaintop face-off between the FunPlusX team, represented by hooded CG avatars featuring elements of their actual LoL avatars, and a terrifying assortment of challengers. Upon completion of the project, Final Frontier confirmed Schultheiss would be joining its roster in Asia and the Americas.
Final Frontier executive producer Chris Colman, Schultheiss and Sehsucht producer, Tanya Curnow, take us through the process:
Final Frontier collaborated with Shanghai agency We Are Social to deliver a mixed media intergalactic battle epic for Acer’s new Predator gaming system, directed by Paulo Garcia from Zombie Studio.
Executive producer Gustavo Karam worked closely with We Are Social from the beginning to shape the creative concept in which a tribe of human warriors equipped with heavy-duty cooling weapons set out to retake a planet overrun with a swarm of horrific heat creatures – reflecting the Predator’s unique heat-battling technology.
Karam also collaborated closely with the agency and director to establish feasibility for the 3D design and production process. He explains,
“It was a joy to work with Khlauss, Nathan and the entire We Are Social team while the concept was still in the embryonic phase. Working together at that stage, it was truly a partnership, in which our experience and insights could really help from both a creative and a production standpoint. It meant we could foresee the challenges ahead, ensured a really smooth process and, most importantly, led to a spectacular result.
