Star Citizen: CitizenCon

CitizenCon 2949 — Event Graphics + Experience Design
+ Information

2020 marks the 8-year anniversary of Star Citizen’s announcement as it continues to leap bounds in achieving a frontierless playing environment. CitizenCon is an annual event where game creator and Cloud Imperium Games founder Chris Roberts can connect with the player base and deliver announcements on the game’s development. Star Citizen’s devout fanbase is mostly attributed to the expansive and seemingly limitless universe replete with real-time rendering server capabilities that create a seamless transition from one world to the next.   

Midnight Sherpa was briefed to create a conference package for the 7k resolution stage presentation as well as a versatile streaming package for the legion of fans watching from home. With the theme of space exploration, we created a series of cinematic titles and stage graphics for each speaker and category. By optimizing the spacecraft from the game’s rich library of assets, we designed and produced a suite of abstract interstitial and environmental imagery as the core design theme for the package.
