commercial contest | wizard101

Framing and recording in-game scenes & using camera-tracking to create a captivating commercial that tells a story.

I created this commercial all the way back in the summer of 2022, when I just finished my Junior year of High School. This community-driven contest caught my eye, as I absolutely adore Wizard101, a game I grew up with, and immediately thought of a “Classic” version of the game, which is seen quite often nowadays.

Most of the difficulty was in crafting the story, in which I deliberately go through the base content of the game that released back in 2009, aiding the “Classical” feel of the trailer. I utilized a ton of camera-tracking, 3D shapes, and Trapcode Particular, as well as a decent amount of Sound Design!

Overall I adored the process, and I ended up winning the contest, which was awesome!
