About this project

With the start of the new season of King of Glory S26, Yin served as the CG teaser video director, working with his team to create a brand new hero story to make people excited for the new season. <br/><br/> As director, he was challenged to create a new way of storytelling - using 2D animated graphics on top of their in-game iconic jade instruments. He studied deeply on Chinese jade, having late night meetings with the 2D and 3D team to make sure both texture are convincing and practical in production. <br/><br/> Yin worked closely with every member of the team - from the storyboard artist, 3D designers, animators, and my CG supervisor. When the CG film was released, it immediately went viral on the internet and gained several million views within seconds.
