Sun Creature

One, two, three: ACTION! Over the years we’ve had a blast creating for some truly bombastic IPs and incredible clients — this trailer is our little homage to all of it. Huge shoutout to every artist, producer, and creative mind behind the scenes who made it happen. 💥 Volume Up 🎧 CREDITS Producer @christine_bur Editor @chamomel Music @yospeedmusic - track: Muita #suncreature #trailer

Animation is more than a technique. It is a powerful universal language able to tell stories. It is the child of the creative process. It is the product of humans who in the effort to create discover their true selves—imperfect, unfinished, forever evolving. This journey, filled with love and the freedom of imagination, is a quiet rebellion against the illusion of picture-perfection, reminding us that the human touch is irreplaceable. ✨ In 2D animation, this truth shines brightest: raw design becomes beautiful, and every limitation turns into a superpower. Today is for all of us who embrace fantasy and imperfection. Happy International Animation Day! Love, Sun Creature #internationalanimationday #suncreature #asifa #2danimation Creature animation by the one and only @thibaudpetitpas Logo animation by @chamomel

This is what happens when a partner leads with two powerful words: creative freedom 🐉 We are incredibly excited to share our first collaboration with @oaklandroots Sports Club for the reveal of their newest jerseys. For this project, we had the unique opportunity to step into the world of sports and fashion, while bringing the spirit of their kits to life through an epic and mythic interpretation of a local legend. With an open brief, our team decided to push the boundaries of 2D animation—transforming a traditional reveal into a celebration of vibrant colors, high-octane FX, and digital glitches. We take great pride in the boldness of this piece and the smooth, transparent collaboration with the Oakland Roots team. It was a journey of mutual trust and shared ambition. A massive round of applause to the tiny-but-mighty team behind this spot. — CREDITS Client: Oakland Roots Sports Club @oaklandroots Creative Director & Lead Animation Artist: Thibaud Petitpas @thibaudpetitpas Executive Producer: Christine Burmeister @christine_bur Producer: Ian Otto @ian.x.otto Animation & Assist: Mette Ilene Holmriis @metteilene Compositing: Mike Tyler, Rasmus Møbius @mikejctyler @rasmusmoebius Music, Sound Design & Mix: Nicolas Vetterli #2danimation #brandedcontent #SunCreature #oaklandroots

While the other brawlers are busy brawling, Sirius has officially made his entrance in @BrawlStars ! Following “The Untold Lore”, we are witnessing the return of a character who once craved the spotlight—and now, his master plan is finally revealed.🔥 Bringing the 100th brawler to life is a milestone we are honored to be part of. We envisioned this trailer to be both dynamic and grand; we balanced the rhythmic, circus-inspired score with complex character interactions and gravity-defying acrobatics to stay true to the signature Supercell energy. We take great pride in the craftsmanship our team brought to this piece—from the vibrant, action-packed animation sequences to the hand-painted circus environments. It has been a true joy to see this project through to such a colorful result. 👏 —— MAIN CREDITS Client: Supercell Director: Nicolai Vielwerth @nico_tales Art Director: Birk Brockdorff @birkvbrock Executive Producer: Luke Youngman Producer: Line Leth @lineleth____ Production Manager: Dionne McLaughlin @dionnemclaughs99 Editing: Susie Oosting @susieoosting Animation Supervisor: Henrik Soenniksen Assist Supervisor: Kay Sales Assist Anim Lead: Pernille Flyvholm @pernilleflyv FX Animation Lead: Erwin Rieffel @erwinrieffel Compositing Supervisor: Tom Fisher @tomffisher Composer & Sound Designer: Kalle Walhberg @kalle.wah #2danimation #BrawlStars100 #Supercell #BrawlStars #SunCreature

Villains aren’t born; they’re made. 🎪 We’re super excited to share our latest collaboration with #Supercell: Sirius – The Untold Lore. Bringing the first-ever villain of the @BrawlStars universe to life was a project fueled by our collective devotion to the craft. To tell this story, we leaned into a 1920s-inspired cut-out shadow animation style. We drew on strong theatrical posing and composition, using high-contrast lighting to mirror the complexity of Sirius’s internal world. Every element of the circus setting is woven into the film: from the tactile tent textures and subtle film grain to the circus-inspired rhythm of the edit. Each detail represents a shared effort to honor the art direction and create a definitive shadow act. Fully trusted by the client and powered by an incredible team—this one is for the books. 👏 Enjoy the show! 🎭 CREDITS Client: Supercell Director Maremi Watanabe Art Director Birk Brockdorff @birkvbrock Executive Producer Luke Youngman Producer Line Leth @lineleth____ Line Producer Claudia Cazzato @contessa_penelope Production Manager Dionne McLaughin @dionnemclaughs99 Storyboard & Character Animation Ian Chan @eee_in Assist Animation Ugo Offner @u.hoffn.anim Editing Susie Oosting @susieoosting Layout & Background Roberto Gatto @gatto.roberto FX Animation Mouloud Oussid @mouloud.oussid Lead Compositing Andreas Severin Compositing Rasmus Møbius @rasmusmoebius Composer & Sound Designer Kalle Walhberg @kalle.wah #2danimation #brandedcontent #storytelling #suncreature #gametrailer #brawlstars

@procreate gave us the best brief ever: have fun with Dreams 2! @thibaudpetitpas : "Say no more". Trying a brand-new workflow was challenging at first, but it sparked a huge wave of curiosity. Seeing the brushes move felt like opening a new playground. It took Thibaud right back to feeling like a student again: learning, experimenting, and just… playing. A refreshing break from routine, and a reminder of why we create in the first place. Do you think he had fun? You bet! #scifisurfer #2danimation @suncreaturestudio #adv #procreatedreams #procreate

✨ How can you visualize emotions? ✨ One month since the release of our celebratory film for the 5th Anniversary of League of Legends: Wild Rift! As the 2D Animation studio behind this piece, we let this question guide our entire creative process. 👇 Our Take: Poetic & Emotionally Resonant At #SunCreature, we have a soft spot for emotional pieces. This project allowed us to shift pace from typical action driven game commercials and focus entirely on giving visual form to deep, relatable emotions. The distinguished animation style makes the story unfold in a poetic and visually captivating way. Richly detailed environments and expressive character moments create a sense of emotional depth, allowing us to identify with a protagonist going through life struggles—as we all have. The Narrative We Visualized We gave visual form to those moments where we as adults feel challenged and lonely. We wanted to honour the power of community and showcase the turn in the journey—when we answer our friends’ call and reconnect. Embracing the new, supported by a collective. Bringing sun through the cloud. ☀️ Why it matters to us We've also been there and we relate! A game connects, and suddenly, you are not alone. That power of community is everything. Now, we challenge you to get the vibrant music by aespa's NINGNING out of your head 🎵🎶🎵 MAIN CREDITS Client: Riot Games @riotgames Creative Director: Simon Lee @suncreature_silee Director: Morgane Dupré @miss_malyss Art Director: Oliver Ryan @oliverryanart Executive Producer: Luke Youngman, Christine Burmeister @christine_bur Producer: Ian Otto @ian.x.otto Production Manager: Martin Axelsson @maax30 Technical Director: Kim Strandli @kimstrandli BG Supervisor: Amei Zhao @amei.zhao.photos Layout Posing Supervisor: Gabriel Gérard @kwotzal Animation Supervisor: Alessandro Vergonnier @alessandro_vergonnier FX Animation: Sixtine James @sixtine_james Assist Animation Supervisor: Kay Sales Compositing Supervisor: Rasmus Møbius @rasmusmoebius And the full gang of talents who made it possible 👊 #RiotGames #wildrift #LeagueOfLegends #musicvideo @imnotningning @playwildrift @leagueoflegends

✨ A year already! ✨ It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole year since Elton John: Never Too Late had its theatrical release. We were beyond honored to be part of this beautiful documentary — tasked by @thismachinefw to bring the animated scenes to life, from early development all the way to the final picture. This project means so much to us — not only for the chance to collaborate with such incredible creatives, but also because it perfectly showcases how animation can capture profound emotion and add rich artistic expression to storytelling — from everyday life moments to darker, more intimate thoughts and feelings. 🌟 MAIN CREDITS Animation Studio @suncreaturestudio Executive Producer Christine Burmeister @christine_bur Line Producers Suzanne Clavairoly, Toni Andrews @tonimonao Head of Animation & Art Director Leïla Courtillon @leilacourtillon Animation Supervisor Laure Escadafals @laureesca Assistant Animation Lead Amélie Coquelet @mrfeulmeud Compositing Supervisor & Editor Gabrielle Locre @gabidule Catch Elton John: Never Too Late — streaming on Disney+!

Welcome to the nerve center. In the world of Splinter Cell: Deathwatch, the beautiful city of Copenhagen trades its serene reputation for something far more classified: it houses Fourth Echelon's headquarters. Outside of the screen, Copenhagen holds a truly special place in the heart of Sun Creature. As one of the studio's homes, we simply couldn't pass on the chance to pay homage to the Danish capital in the series. Its mix of modern architecture and historic canals provided the perfect backdrop for the high-stakes, sleek, and shadowy world of espionage. And a shout-out to all the Copenhagen-based people out there—keep your eyes peeled, Sam Fisher may just be behind you. 🤫 Fabulous work is only possible thanks to fabulous artists!
