The Wizard of Legend 2 Variety Trailer was an exciting and creative project where LAYER was responsible for shaping the trailer’s concept, copywriting, game capture, motion graphics, and video editing. Our goal was to craft a dynamic trailer that captured the high-energy action and mythical world of Wizard of Legend 2, while emphasizing the game’s new features, including the vibrant 3D visuals, up to 4-player co-op, and the rogue-lite challenges players would face.
Our role began with developing the concept for the trailer, which needed to highlight both the chaos and excitement of the game’s elemental magic and the perilous trials players would face in the Floating Lands. We focused on making sure the trailer conveyed the game’s fast-paced, action-packed gameplay while teasing the unpredictability of the rogue-lite experience that lies at the heart of Wizard of Legend 2.
The copywriting for the trailer was crafted to evoke the mythic journey of the game’s ambitious wizards. We aimed to intrigue the audience with the trials, the shifting forces of Arcana, and the thrill of mastering devious new spell combinations. The words set the stage for the gameplay that followed, giving viewers a taste of the challenge ahead.
Game capture was essential in showcasing the vibrant new 3D environments, the unique elemental forces of Arcana, and the exhilarating, fast-paced combat that defines the game. We carefully selected the most exciting and visually striking gameplay moments to highlight, ensuring the trailer was both engaging and true to the experience.
Motion graphics were integrated to enhance the visuals and bring extra flair to key moments, adding a layer of polish and excitement. The video editing tied everything together, creating a well-paced, high-energy trailer that maintained the viewer’s attention and excitement throughout.
The trailer successfully conveyed the chaotic, magical nature of the game, inviting viewers to dive into the action-packed trials and unpredictable challenges. LAYER’s work in concept creation, game capture, motion graphics, and editing resulted in a polished, engaging trailer that effectively captured the spirit of the game and showcased its dynamic new features.
