Halo 4: War Games DLC Trailer

343 Industries .  Halo 4 . December 2012

This was released one month after Halo 4's launch. The Infinity Deck, featured in the Halo 4: E3 trailer, was revamped and utilized for all post-Halo 4 launch DLC graphics. I personally designed all the graphics before concluding my tenure with the team, and I developed an adaptable Hologram system by leveraging Plexus and After Effects expressions to modify the map names seamlessly. The complete Infinity Deck and its camera movements were subsequently rendered. The 3D reference points for the monitors and lights were then composited afterwards. This approach allowed for prompt adjustments to the map names or edits without necessitating an entire re-rendering of the Infinity Deck. Here, I have included a glimpse of the deck as it appears in Cinema 4D, prior to compositing.
