Leon Astaire, a young Hero "chosen by the gods", and his party of comrades are tasked in defeating the Demon Queen and her vampire army. When the day comes to face the enemy not only is he betrayed by his closest friends, but he is also taken hostage.
However, things are not what they seem.''if you're going to kill me then kill me!''
"Kill you?'' The queen looked surprised, ''oh no'', she laughed, ''I told you already, I don't like the mess.''"Bare witness!'' She shouted, ''today a new prince will be born!''Leon has found himself turned into the very monsters he vowed to subjugate.
⸻ What is I Was The Hero?
Having previously created animated music videos and webcomics separately, I seek to unify all these mediums by creating a promotional chapter, splitting all the illustrations into assets, and employing Adobe After Effects to make a cinematic trailer as a form of marketing. I will also be inserting voice acting which I will equalize and mix myself to take the viewer experience to the next level.The hope is to continue I Was The Hero even far after I graduate from The University of Texas at Dallas until I see the story into completion. I want to keep developing my skills I have learned and further combine webcomics, audio engineering, and animation to make short cinematic episodes of climax points within the story. I'd like to inspire people to similarly push the boundaries of visual mediums and not feel the need to only choose one even if it's for the same project.
