My biggest video project to date, I spent countless hours drawing all the pixel art and animating it frame by frame to create a GameBoy-style experience. I hope you like it!
The music is the latest single from my upcoming 8-bit album. It's now available on Bandcamp and most streaming platforms:
Bandcamp: glasys.bandcamp.com/track/new-world-unlocked
Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/6Ksv94iyQXCGDVcQfYC3fg
Apple: music.apple.com/us/album/new-world-unlocked-single/1630923348
You can also download all the music from my videos by supporting me on Patreon: patreon.com/glasys
My main inspiration (for both the music and animation) was the GB games I grew up on: Zelda, Castlevania, Mario, Metroid (to name a few). This is my first serious attempt at pixel art and animation, I've learned a ton from the process and I hope to further improve those skills in the future.
Credits:
Gil Assayas (GLASYS) - All music, pixel art and animation (drawn from scratch using Photoshop and edited frame by frame in Final Cut), video concept, production.
John Thompson (Ballooga Media) - Real life camera footage (filming and editing, special fx).
Huge thanks to my Patreon supporters, I appreciate you all so much!
Thanks to John Thompson for the cool camera work which we shot at his studio and he edited.
A special thanks to my wife Natalie for her patience, support and feedback while I was focused on this project.
And thank YOU for watching!
