A project I worked on & off over a year. The idea was to finally make a small YouTube video essay and learn Grease Pencil for 2D animated scenes.
For this I made a looping 2D animated scene that is overlayed on top of the full 22 minute day & night cycle of the game. On top of that is another overlay for relevant example footage that fits well with the rest.
This was meant to save on editing time but ended up consuming a lot more time for animation and compositing :D
I worked on this together with Vivien Lulkowski, who made the wonderful concept, and hand animated elements. She also helped out a lot in providing feedback for the writing.
I love how the day & night cycle and many of the animated elements came together.
A lot of lessons were learned. If I put together a little article on that I will link it here.
