Armored Core

Secret Level

I worked on these scenes in the Secret Level: Armored Core film as a character animator. My task was the freehand animation of the robots, as well as the motion capture-based animation of Keanu Reeves.

The series was ordered by Amazon in August 2024 and was first revealed at Gamescom that month. Its first eight episodes were released worldwide on December 10, 2024, with the remaining seven episodes released on December 17, 2024. It received mixed reviews from critics. The Pac-Man episode served as promotion for the upcoming game, Shadow Labyrinth. In December 2024, the series was renewed for a second season.

The gameplay combines strategy and turn-based combat elements. Players control a squad of heroes, each with unique abilities, and engage in battles against supernatural enemies. The game also includes a base of operations called the Abbey, where players can interact with characters, customize their hero, and advance the narrative. The film is exclusively available on Amazon Prime.
