In pursuit of their objectives, the crew added new artists in the mix, devised novel methods for making movies, and ventured into formats they hadn't tried before, such as in-game cinematics and stop-motion animation. Covering all of the officialOverwatch cinematics made from 2017-2020,The Cinematic Art of Overwatch: Volume 2 showcases hundreds of pieces of never-before-seen artwork and documents the epic creative journey that Blizzard took to bring these films to life.
