Following Cyber Kicks, Something's Awry Productions created Boneyard Brawl, a medieval-themed short film aimed at showcasing their ability to produce video game cinematics. The film features a wizard battling hordes of skeletons in a classic video game scenario.
"It's just me in a motion capture suit fighting off imaginary skeletons, but the result is a dynamic and lifelike battle scene," says Theorin.
Theorin has always been ambitious in his projects, sometimes biting off more than he could chew. "Boneyard Brawl was a learning experience in scope and production efficiency. In the past, I've taken on more than I could handle, but with this project, I focused on containing the scope and using efficient production techniques," says Theorin.
To bring this vision to life, Theorin employed a strategic and efficient workflow. Using premade assets from KitBash3D he was able to construct a richly textured environment quickly.
"We used KitBash's medieval packs to create a richly detailed environment, which was crucial for the film's visual impact," adds Theorin.
By leveraging these assets and focusing on production efficiency, Theorin was able to create a visually stunning short film. Boneyard Brawl not only entertained viewers but also served as a proof of concept for potential gaming clients, demonstrating Something Awry's capability to produce high-quality video game cinematics.
"Boneyard Brawl helped us showcase our versatility and attract new opportunities in the gaming industry," says Theorin.
