In their latest crazed cinematic for Supercell, Axis Studios and director Olly Reid drop what they call an “homage to the 90’s style hip-hop music video aesthetic” for the 2023 Clash of Clans Hammer Jam event.

From the team at Axis: “This full CG cinematic is complete with graffiti-covered environments, DJ set-ups and established Clash of Clans characters as we’ve never seen them before. The release marks Axis’ third collaborative journey with Supercell, where they entrusted the team with creating a trailer that was a departure from their usual style, whilst maintaining the classic Clash vibe that fans and players know and love.

“As part of bringing the hip-hop music video feel, the team used fish-eye lenses throughout; something not previously done in any Axis Studios project. They successfully implemented this style into the production pipeline in a way that worked for all departments, allowing them to push for the distinctive visuals desired for this cinematic.”
