Sea of Thieves - Orb #2 Christmas Livestream

StatusEffect's biggest livestream to date. Setting records of biggest value return out of all Xbox Partnered games livestreams. Considering we had a short turn-around, it was an awesome outcome.
The Christmas livestream was full of celebration, 2023 teases for Sea of Thieves & giveaways. The stream managed to reach over 18,000 concurrent viewers.

My role was to work on multiple cinematics to tease the 2023 year of Sea of Thieves. However a breakdown of what I worked on can be seen below.
This included, but not limited to;
- Reverse engineering Rare's game assets for our usage
- Lots of discovering and problem solving when it comes to usage of certain assets, animations & features that normally run at game runtime (with little guidance).
- Concepting with Art Director, Sequencer, Posing, Animating & Combining Particle effects for desired outcomes.
- Leading the creation of pipelines and workflows for collaboration (Source Control, Sub-Level Streaming)
- Writing up guides and sharing knowledge with the rest of the team.

The livestream that reached over 18,000 concurrent viewers & 800,000 VOD views can be viewed here:
