On YouTube, content creator Cara Aleatorio uploaded an almost four-minute-long video featuring the original opening scene of Resident Evil 4. The animation starts from when Resident Evil's Leon Kennedy gets dropped off into the rural Spanish village in his search for Ashley Graham. In the video, the animator was able to recreate many of the game's details using different kinds of LEGO bricks. This includes using LEGO minifigs for the characters and combined LEGO bricks for the broken-down buildings and plants. What's more, Aleatorio also included the dense fog in the animation, adding to the creepy feel of the video.
Replies in the YouTube comment section showed fellow fans' amazement at the animation, especially since Aleatorio seemed to have recreated many of the game's features so accurately. Some pointed out that the player experience was also replicated well, particularly the part where Leon can be seen shooting birds at the very beginning of Resident Evil 4. According to the video's description box, they had used the 3D program Blender to create the entire video. They also used around 3,000 images to make the seamless animation, taking about 1–2 months to complete the project.
