Squeeze won a Gold Telly Award, in the “Branded Content – Craft-3D animation” category, for its Clash Tonight cinematic featured in the Clash of Clans video game.
This is the 3rd consecutive year that Squeeze has won a Telly for a major project with Finnish game developer Supercell. The cinematics for Electro Giant and Magic Items also won awards in 2021 and 2022 respectively.
“It is a great honour for Squeeze to see the incredible creativity of our team rewarded within the industry,” says Denis Doré, CEO and co-founder of Squeeze. “This gold recognition is a testament to the tremendous success of our long-term collaboration with Supercell!” he adds.
The Clash Tonight cinematic features the iconic Clash of Clans characters celebrating, dancing on an original music created especially for the event. Acclaimed by fans of the franchise for the quality of its animation, the video released in September 2022 has so far accumulated over 13 million views on YouTube.
This news comes at a time when Squeeze has just released a new cinematic for the Clash of Clans game, Builder Base 2.0.
