NOMINATIONS
Golden Trailer Awards: Best Video Game Trailer
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer…” was a comforting litany when we dove head-first into our ambitious, first client project.
Ragdoll provided cinematic direction and delivered end-to-end production. We worked directly in the Unreal Engine, building custom cinematics in close collaboration with Funcom’s development team in order to meet quality and expectation benchmarks of the highest standard.
The trailer premiered at The Game Awards 2022, for an estimated viewership of 103 million.
Ragdoll did a fantastic job taking the Dune: Awakening pre-alpha teaser trailer from idea to storyboard to finished product, working closely with our internal teams to ensure the trailer hit all our goals in terms of quality and messaging. Ragdoll’s capabilities in script writing, storyboarding, game capture, and editing make them easy to recommend as a full-service video production company for the gaming industry.
