A personal project to test out my skills via Procreate Dreams.
I created the background layer in Procreate, creating a night skyline of New Orleans, LA. I wanted to have brick as the floor to give a European vibe to it and have it feel like walking up a hill. The phone idea was inspired by a client who is a big fan of football and was explaining to me how the NFL works. As a fellow Detroiter, I felt it would be fun to make it an "NFL Tinder" where the Detroit lion would be swiping on it's enemies and would finally see the Superdome.
I do like 2D VFX and also wanted to implement that into the animation; creating fireworks and lights that shine on the Superdome.
Regarding the audio, "APT" was going viral at the time and I felt that since the song was about a game, it fit with the animation theme and the timing.
The video below is the BTS of the process.
