Cities Skylines

Paradox Interactive

I was approached by my old class mate from Hyper Island, Robin Wellström and asked to create a new animation for Paradox Intreractive game Cities Skylines 6th birthday. Armed with fun statistics about the game they wanted a fun and fast pased way to present all the amazing achievements their community has made with the game.

Client - Paradox Interactive // Producer - Robin Wellström //Design and animation - Lage Lind

 

The process

Robin provided me with a basic storyboard mainly highlighting what kind of information they wanted to show in the animation as well as some minor visal ideas. I also recieved videos to draw inspiration from that the client liked. We had a quick start up meeting over Google Meet and discussed the porject before jumping straight in to After Effects. I created a fist version which had some minor tweaks and then finalized everything for the second verison. All in all it took abot a week from start to fisnish.
