Context

Two of the most well known franchises in the world collide to create a brand new game, Monopoly: Star Wars Heroes vs. Villains.

We supported Ubisoft for the launch with a full CG trailer, to bring a bit of Jedi pleasure to all fans (not to mention those at Biborg).

Our Approach

This trailer posed two major challenges.

The first was to equitably merge two distinct universes. Star Wars and Monopoly both have their own lore and specific look and feel, so we needed to unite these worlds under a single cinematic vision that would appeal to fans of either or both.

Secondly, we had to create a dynamic trailer that showcased the game’s Monopoly-centric mechanics, such as dice rolls, teamplay and territory battles, in a setting and narrative style inspired by the codes of Star Wars.

For the craft, we had the great pleasure of collaborating with Menhir FX, specialists in 3D animation.
