Blue Odyssey

While researching a mysterious substance on an alien planet, your mind gets foggy. In search of the way back to civilization, you get lost in the vastness of a blue world...

Blue Odyssey is a cinematic trailer for a fictional sci-fi game with a focus on atmospheric lighting and sound. The trailer shows a researcher's journey through the landscape of an alien planet, reminiscent of an underwater world above water. This bachelor's thesis in studies of Interactive Media examined the purpose of various types of game trailers, the pros and cons of real-time rendering in Unreal Engine 4, and how different 3D assets harmonise with one another aesthetically.
