Kung-Fu Movie,
WuTang: Shaolin Style
Activision, 1999

We created an almost 10 minute-long fake Kung-Fu movie for this Playstation game. Members of the popular rap group Wu-Tang clan are trying to save their Shaolin master Xin from the evil master Mong-Zhu, both of which are shown in this shot.

The movie is fully key-framed and stars 18 characters in 4 segments, six locations and about 180 shots altogether. On this work I supervised group of 5 animators and animated several critical shots by myself.

A lot of people have said that this could be one of the best game movies ever made, so check it out. I’ve heard that the WuTang guys liked their characters very much and that there is a video clip from them using this footage. In Europe we saw it on VIVA channel.
