Monkey Man trailer still lighting study using metahuman and UE5

CG and Unreal Lighting Artist.

Animation I’ve done using Maya and VRay.

Hey #PortfolioDay I’m a lighting artist in the Bay Area looking for his first role in gamedev. I’ve lit in production pipelines for a year focusing in Maya/VRay. Have made the leap into UE5 and loving it.

My samples:

Lighting study of Jost Vocano’s cinematography in RoboCop. Adjusted the desaturation in layers, midtones, highlights and shadows. Added a cool wash over the image to match the cooler palette from the reference. Lit in Unreal Engine 5.3.

Wrapped up this re-lighting project yesterday and moved on to my next project series.

Rendered using the SafeHouse asset from Unreal Marketplace in UE5.2

Hey #PortfolioDay I’m Kyle Garfield and I’m a CG/Unreal Lighting Artist looking for work. I primarily use Maya/VRay and UE5.

Here’s a link to my portfolio and samples of my work:

Updates to my little animation in UE5.

Animation will end just after the door opens. Toying with the idea of light spilling out or not. But as it stands I like where it’s at right now. Very moody/atmospheric.

Some of my work from this year. Link to my portfolio site:

Made some tweaks to the lighting. Gonna be going for a deep midnight setting but got the shadows where I want them. Now it’s all about the fine tuning after I do some material fixes.

First art post on the sky app.

Working my first in scene blocking inside of Unreal with Megascans. Most of my work is relighting using already assembled scenes so this is a first dabble from the ground up. Keen on the progress. More to come this week.
