I’ve just released two short montage clips exploring contrasting visual styles — each one a standalone tribute to the power of design, mood, and character-driven imagery in animation.
The first, Samurai, leans heavily into graphic minimalism — deep shadows, bold reds, and a stark silhouette aesthetic inspired by vintage posters and Japanese war drama. Think mood first, story hinted.
The second, Fantasy Knight, takes a cooler, grittier approach — cinematic lighting, metallic textures, and close-up intensity designed to echo dark fantasy intros and brooding heroes.
Both were created using Character Creator, iClone 8, and rendered in Unreal Engine 5.5 — serving as visual exercises in atmosphere and stylized storytelling.
