Trouble Night - Garena’s Free Fire x Sun Creature
In the Summer of 2025, Christian had the pleasure of directing this anime-inspired film for Garena’s battle-royale game “Free Fire“ and their Halloween special event “Trouble Night” at Sun Creature Studio.
Working closely with the client in Brazil, and their shareholders in Shanghai, it was clear that we all wanted a different style from the 'usual' game cinematics.
Inspired by the concept art of the game, Christian and the creative team in Sun Creature came up with this new look inspired by anime tv-series and graphic novels.
