Just in time for the holidays,??? ?? Robloxis bringing a true Christmas classic to life: Will Ferrell-starring Elfwill be an official experience available for players this season.
Created by Fairview Portals, a creative studio founded by Elfdirector Jon Favreau, and Supersocial, a virtual world developer, the Elfimmersive experience will take players into Santa's Workshop, drawing inspiration from the film — and also marking its twentieth anniversary.
The creators used special effects including tilt-shift camera, desaturated environments, and material-inspired textures to put together a stop-motion world. Yonatan Raz-Fridman, founder and CEO of Supersocial called the project "a labor of love," intended to channel "the whimsy and joy of the holiday season."
