Fortiche, the studio behind the beloved Arcane series, shared a behind-the-scenes look at its latest collab with the French YouTuber Inoxtag, who has over 27 million followers.
The animation studio worked on the official trailer for the streamer's Valorant Twitch event, "Road to Immo." The challenge's objective was to reach the prestigious Immortal rank in Valorant, the Riot Games FPS tactical game: for five days, the YouTuber plays non-stop in a 24/7 marathon streamed live on Twitch.
The one-minute cinematic teaser features 41 seconds of 3D animation produced by Fortiche, with the studio's signature hand-painted backgrounds and 2D effects. The team built a complete storyboard for seamless transitions, accompanied by the track Full Drip by Vladimir Cauchemar ft. DI-MEH, chosen by Inoxtag. The project brought together a talented team of animators and actors, including Alexis Wanneroy, Joakim Riedinger, Pierre Bottai, Vincent Plagniol, and Martial André.
