Client overview
When Antoine approached us with his upcoming novel Hell’s Knight, a brutal medieval fantasy epic, he didn’t want just a cover. He wanted a world.
We delivered a cinematic book trailer that would make even HBO nod in approval.
Why it Worked
In a world where indie authors compete for scroll-time, cinematic book trailers stand out. By combining high-quality 3D models, fantasy animation, and storytelling finesse, we created a trailer that made Hell’s Knight feel like the next big franchise.
The Project
We crafted a full 3D visual experience to bring the world of Hell’s Knight to life, including:
- A custom 3D model of the Hell Knight in battle-worn armor
- A menacing, fire-breathing dragon rendered in cinematic detail
-
A medieval village environment nestled at the foot of a scorched mountain
A dynamic animation of the dragon soaring over the village and raining fire from the skies — teasing the chaos to come
Results
- 10K+ trailer views in first week of launch
- Increased pre-orders and social media engagement for the novel
- Used across TikTok, Instagram, and author’s Kickstarter campaign for maximum visibility
