Overkills The Walking Dead - Aidan
In this cinematic I acted as Character Lead for all "human" characters while the zombies were led by Daniel Bystedt.
In 2018, Starbreeze will launch their brand new game ”Overkill’s The Walking Dead”. This is the first Character trailer, presenting one of the main characters in the game: Aidan.
The film is directed by Andrée Wallin and our teams in Uppsala and Stockholm worked closely with Starbreeze to create it – from script to finished film – and utilized every tool in the tool box to push the boundaries both technically and artistically, including State of the art 3D Scanning for the creation of the characters, full Performance Capture combined with meticulous Key Animation and lots of FX.
We hope you will enjoy this film as much as we enjoyed creating it.
