Client ESC

Director Luke Heise

ESC, Sydney’s first gaming-themed restaurant, partnered with Motionlab to create The Big Battle, a 2D animation designed to entertain guests and enhance the unique atmosphere of the venue. Unlike traditional advertisements, this animated short was crafted as an immersive content piece to complement the dining and gaming experience.

The story takes viewers into a virtual ninja dojo, where intense battles and imaginative transitions capture the excitement of gaming adventures. Told entirely through expressive animation and bold design, the narrative seamlessly integrates into ESC’s environment while engaging diners in a creative and playful way.

This project focused on storytelling and atmosphere, delivering a visually driven narrative that reflects ESC Sydney, combining food, fun, and connection. The Big Battle offers a shared adventure that guests will remember long after they leave.

Be sure to check out our other video for ESC, The Grand Chase, a fast-paced karting adventure that’s just as dynamic and fun.
