All Animal Studio develops cinematics for Heroes of Might and Magic III Remake

Prague-based independent CGI animation studio All Animal Studio has contributed to the upcoming Heroes of Might and Magic III: Remake by Ubisoft. The studio developed ten narrative in-game cinematics for the Restoration of Erathia campaign, totaling approximately three minutes and 42 seconds of footage.

Working to modernize the iconic 1990s setting, the studio utilized realistic CGI techniques, including optical camera behavior, chromatic aberration, and film color grading. Key tasks included the creation of the character Queen Catherine, transitioning her from 2D art to a realistic 3D model, as well as developing environments such as fantasy castles, natural landscapes, and interiors.

Initial footage of the project was showcased during the Opening Night Live event at Gamescom. Ubisoft reportedly valued the studio's proactive creative approach during the collaboration.
