For Dune: Awakening, we partnered with fellow Keywords studio Fire Without Smoke. Under their creative direction we created a selection of in-engine sequences to be added to their capture footage within the trailer.

Our team created these shots using custom hand-keyed animation and the systems available to us within the Dune: Awakening game engine, such as the character customisation, weather/physics systems and the existing environment assets. We worked to maintain a narrative cohesion with the gameplay footage output by the FWS team, to ensure that we were replicating the core gameplay look of the base game itself and a seamless end product for Funcom to take to their audience.
