The Story of the #ALGS Year 5 Championship 🏆

I really hope people can fall in love with Apex Esports in the way that I have over 3 years of working on it. It feels like one of the world’s truly global esports where any team from across the four major regions can win. It has some of the most incredible personalities playing in it and there’s always a chance that an underdog can achieve success at the highest level. @MonsoonGG and Oblivion are indicative of that fact after this year. It deserves all the love it’s getting right now and I hope it continues. Soppy post over.

Another Champs in the books. I’ll never take for granted that I get to work on events like this. Months of work went into that event and opening ceremony and everyone who worked on it can be proud of another incredible event. Competitive Apex remains unmatched.

MY HERO @iamPartisan WE ARE GOINNNNNNGGGG

@HugoDerave Impossible to put into words how much you do for the broadcast and the scene. So you get an emoji. 🐐

6 weeks of constant work, and it ended today. You have only seen the tip of the iceberg on broadcast of what has been done behind the scenes, but I hope I was able to make the broadcast a bit more enjoyable for you all. It started more than 6 years ago, it's not ending today.

@EternalEEC Hey guys, could I get a follow back so I can DM you please? Thanks!

@Lideyuuh @RreeseCantSpeel is an absolute superstar for whichever company picks him up.

Gutted to hear about the EE lay-offs. Please flood my inbox with broadcast resumes. Always looking for talented folks to bring on projects. lydia.pendergrass@ osstudios (dot) gg

@jumba @AyeJHawk Stage visuals were generated based on their script with key words or phrases picked out as good opportunities for visual metaphors. An example being ‘Empires were crumbling’ line in script turned into TSM and DZ logos disintegrating as visuals.

Last posts of the stream of consciousness. The script. Created by the incredible @Jumba & @AyeJHawk. Those guys were given a loose outline of the chapters and themes & delivered an almost impeccable fleshed out script within about 72 hours! Completely underpinned it all.

Very proud of the opening ceremony we pulled off at this event so thought I’d post some nerdy production stuff on a thread about how it came together in case people found it interesting.
