Ernest Desumbila Detonates Heartsteel “Paranoia” Music Video for Riot

Director Ernest Desumbila and his crew at Sauvage.TV in Barcelona snap back to the League of Legends world with impossibly kinetic action layered up in CG and glitchy hand-animated 2D for Riot Games virtual boy band Heartsteel.

Heartsteel joins Riot’s stable of virtual LoL bands including hip-hop group True Damage and K-popsters K/DA who graced the cover of Stash 133.
