StarCraft: First Contact

This was a very fun project to do! It’s an animation made for StarCraft Legacy, an award winning officially authorized fan site.

I started working on this in mid April 2009, and finished by the end of June 2009. It was quite a ride and I loved bringing to life a part of this amazing universe.

The cinematic can be enjoyed by everybody, but it will resonate especially with well versed StarCraft fans. It takes place four days prior to the start of the first single player campaign from StarCraft, focusing on the first contact between the Protoss and the Terrans, as executor Tassadar is sent to cleanse Terran colonies of the Zerg infestation. These events are spoken of during the game, but we never saw how it all happened. Until now.

The voice was done by Phillip Sacramento, who did a great job portraying Tassadar.

I strongly recommend you view this in glorious HD:
