BGP – Scrap Pirates – Week 7

This past week I’ve been working on the trailer for Scrap Pirates, and finished it yesterday. We wanted to keep the trailer simple, using the in-game assets and gameplay footage, as we didn’t have the time to create a lot of new animations. The only “new” character animation in the trailer is a short pointing-animation consisting of three frames, where I just changed the arm on the idle-pose.

I began working on the trailer without the music, as we didn’t have the final music for the game yet. As soon as we got the music file though I went on with timing and editing what I’d already created to match the music. Everything was put together in Adobe After Effects CS5.

Now it’s just one week left before GGC (Gotland Game Conference). We’ve mostly got polishing left on the game, though there are a few things we still need to finish these last few days. What we show on GGC won’t be an entirely finished game though, it’s more of a demo, as that would have been impossible for us to finish in just 8 weeks.

Wish us luck!

Cheers!
