DESCRIPTION:
Battlefield is known for massive moments of scale. Destruction, online operations, and war stories. The trailers are meticulously crafted - from cinematics to online gameplay where every player is an actor that is being directed to do a specific action. But what would it be like if you didn’t coordinate anything? Could something created entirely from random multiplayer matches - with no players aware their actions were being filmed - still deliver an original story with emotional weight?
And finally, how good could you make that look? This was the challenge I took on in this short film, where all footage, editing, narration, writing, VFX, sound mixing, and title sequences are original. This is unscripted gameplay. This is Battlefield.
If you played Battlefield 1 or Battlefield V anytime in December or January, you may be in this.
Full disclosure: My day job is making professional game trailers. I wanted to challenge myself, and I was also in a really emotional state when it came to both world wars, and the horrific events that took place. The pain I was feeling was strong and I wanted to make that into something. This is the result.
