A deep dive into how a small team approached real-time animation, performance, and storytelling.

In this making-of, we cover the creative and technical decisions behind the project, from character performance and narrative structure to production design, lighting, VFX, and our Unreal Engine pipeline.

It also reflects on the experience of working on the project as a team, including collaboration, problem-solving, and the adjustments made along the way, with insights and support from Epic Games throughout the process.
