Description
I love how Unreal lets you figure out what it is you are creating as you go. From very basic idea about roaming night beings to a short audiovisual piece. Night lighting, over the top colors, silhouettes. This was always an esthetic I wanted to play with because I love the look of city streets and exteriors at night. Unreal Engine, now with Lumen and Nanite, is the perfect tool to just play with and figure out stuff without hitting a wall too often. Very liberating.

A very unique idea perfectly executed. You got the whole “evening under street lights” spot on.

Thanks man, I’m glad some idea makes it through :smiley:
Yeah I love the aesthetic, good urban night photography/filmography is pure gold as inspiration.

Next stop is cars at night :slight_smile:

Those are some brilliant reference images. Classics!
I may even give one of those a try myself.
