Hello Polycounters! This is our second year project at the University of Hertfordshire. Ben Macauley and I, Sebastian Vomvas, have been working on it as environment artists, along with our character artist Keön Viljoen and our composer/voice actor Sam Blake.
Divided Kingdom is set in a dystopian near future, during the aftermath of a bloody civil war in the once United Kingdom, fought between the Government forces and the Private Military Companies. The protagonist is a former soldier of the British Army, now making a living as a mercenary, taking contracts from whichever side he chooses.
This is the current version of the cinematic 'trailer' for this game:

We have also entered The Rookies with it:

Pro:
- Nice setting and music.
- Trailer looks pretty good, nice modeling, texturing and compositing.
Cons
- Lacks of post-production effects. Dust, Volume light, particle effects, flickering lights, etc...
- Shade of greys. I think the colors need more contrast.
- That soulless animation at the end, It need some serious work
Of course this my opinion. keep up the good job
