Client: Hypixel
Role: Everything
For Hypixel’s latest animation “Adventure Awaits – A Hypixel SkyBlock Animation”, they wanted a new ident. Their old one was very simple and didn’t fit very well with the new animation’s style. Therefore, I was tasked with creating a new ident.
I started with modelling a 3D version of their 2D logo, and shading it to look very similar to the original logo. I created a fire simulation in Houdini using the 3D logo. I then animated the camera and lights in Autodesk Maya to create the different shots. In the final shot, where the full logo is revealed, I blended in the original 2D logo at half opacity to still keep as close to the original logo as possible.
