Assassin's Creed Cinematics

zGot side tracked with my other posts: This one has been waiting to be written for a couple of weeks now!

Another franchise I looked at while researching cinematics is Assassin's Creed.  Not only are the animated cinematics amazingly beautiful and almost photo realistic, the Assassin's Creed Franchise has also made use of live-action promotion.  In the animated cinematics the character animation is really well done, with all movements appearing very natural and life-like.  The development of this can be clearly seen across the years.

I could keep writing, but really I think that these cinematics speak well enough for themselves.

Assassin's Creed II:

The promotion of Assassin's Creed II was the franchises first step into Live Action, with three short films being made to promote and expand the game.

Assassins Creed IV Black Flag:

I feel that the live action-trailer adds more depth to the portrayal of the characters and world seen in these cinematics.  The CG E3 cinematic, while beautiful, doesn't feel like it has the same punch narrative-wise as the earlier cinematics.
