In order to produce pop culture related videos or trending topics, I had to create specific assets from scratch as they were not available in the game itself.
I experimented with characters, environments, animations, level design and created new skins from scratch. The experiments were made in Photoshop and After Effects.
These maps are first drafted in Photoshop using references from the game itself.
Then I create new elements in the same style, both with illustrations done from scratch or found in libraries and updated.
Finally I add characters and collectibles and animate them in After Effects.

I created these custom maps from scratch, following trends from competitors and other games from Popcore: industrial/worksite, farm, western... etc.
I also experimented with 'pop culture' references for characters and environments.
