Valorant Afropunk 22

Leave the fireworks to Raze and the animation to us! In 2022, Valorant Brazil took the best ‘squadzinho’ to the AFROPUNK Bahia event for an exclusive performance full of great music, dance, and style celebrating black culture.

We were honored to be invited by Riot Games to produce the seven films promoting their presence at the event and the mission to express Raze’s gingado and represent her hometown, Salvador (the blackest city outside of Africa), in a way that she would be proud of!

To bring freshness to the campaign, we incorporated African-inspired patterns and graphics, highly stylized versions of Salvador’s famous landmarks, and the warmth of our country! It was a blast!
