Spec Trailer - Spacechem Ashley Ruhl - Game Trailer Editor 2019-09-20 | Spacechem by Zachtronic Games is a puzzle game about creating chemical bonds between atoms, starting with inputs and creating outputs using a series of commands similar to visual programming. I always enjoyed how it felt when I would run the reactor and it felt like a choreographed dance. I decided to use salsa music, which while a bit of a contrast to the game's tone, emulates the playfulness I felt while building in it.

Professional Trailer - We Are Chicago Ashley Ruhl - Game Trailer Editor 2019-09-24 | I worked closely with the Culture Shock devs to create this launch trailer for their game We Are Chicago. The subject matter required a lot of care to make sure the tone was serious but not exploitative. I wanted to showcase the joys of family life as much as the struggles Aaron endures.
Spec Trailer - Yonder Ashley Ruhl - Game Trailer Editor 2019-09-24 | A spec teaser trailer I created for the game Yonder. I focused on showcasing the exploration, creature interactions, and farming mechanics, while keeping the tone light-hearted and endearing.
