This mini episode features our first Killer of Killer's Predator, Oni. This piece is a great example of the marketing team needing to improvise ahead of the production schedule, as I had to rig and animate the new chain whip weapon for this trailer.

Our first foray into Predator sizzles- the team took a chance in this piece by introducing a never before seen ship design to tantalize Predator fans with a splash of new lore. Stakeholders dug it! Once storyboards and the ship's design were finalized, I got to work sculpting camera animations and constructing the ship in Blender. This scene was set atop an area not accessible to players, so I also had to set dress and create custom geometry and materials to bring the ancient pyramid to life.
