Blocklords: Slay The Bear- Creatures and Characters

Axis Studios delivered the official cinematic trailer for the multiplayer experience and strategy game Blocklords, ‘Slay the Bear’. The trailer, created in partnership with Seascape, enters a new realm of the medieval world, where a frost covered open-air landscape sets the scene for an epic battle between two giants of nature. Director Jon Yeo and Axis brought a clear vision with a striking visual signature that captures the modern tone of the Blocklords world. The use of keyframe animation adds intricate details to the creatures’ movements and believability to their epic clash. The attention to detail in character and creature modelling, along with intricate groom techniques, showcases the talent and approach of the Axis team. This folder showcases a range of creature and character work created for the project.
