The studio welcomes the children of the Petits Princes association
For the sixth year in a row, we are partnering with the Petits Princes association, which works to make the dreams of sick children come true. This time, we welcomed 5 young people to the studio who were able to discover the behind-the-scenes aspects of video game creation, meet the Just Dance teams, receive gifts, but above all discover the surprises that the studio’s artists had in store for them.
DRAW THE HERO OF YOUR DREAMS
We asked 9 artists from the studio to reimagine the drawings of Naveed, Robin, Raphael, Ethan, Rayan, Nahil, Hélias, Annaeg and Paul, all video game lovers. Their mission: to follow the children’s instructions and use their know-how to give life to their ideal hero. That’s how we got some original creations that we couldn’t wait to show you!
VISIT of THE STUDIO AND UBISOFT HQ
The 5 youngsters went to the studio accompanied by a parent and were able to discover the transformation of their drawings, but also to receive a personalized box containing their nicely framed drawing, video games, a plush toy, a Mario Rabbids figurine and a USB key.
During this time, the parents and the kids were very excited to chat about their drawings with the artists of the studio, who explained the artistic process behind their drawing. It was also an opportunity to take pictures before going to the floor dedicated to Just Dance!
While touring the space, the kids were accompanied by Claire Bourgne, Just Dance Producer, who explained the jobs involved in the production of the game and the history of the brand since Just Dance 2022 was going to be launched the next day!
The 5 young people were able to continue by learning the main steps of the creation of a Just Dance map, all in the studio’s green room, before taking the road to Ubisoft’s headquarters. There, they tried out virtual reality activities including MAZE, a virtual maze, and RISE, a VR roller coaster, before ending the meeting with a snack.
Their discussion with the studio’s artists and Just Dance production teams generated many questions that will hopefully encourage these video game enthusiasts to pursue a career in our industry.
