Destiny 2: Beyond Light

Beyond Light (2020) was the Guardians' first foray to Europa, and the first look at the birthplace of the Exo race. I worked on many sections of the destination, and my biggest passion project (possibly to date) was developing the aesthetic for Exo lighting. Light fixtures, atmospherics, and many under-the-hood workflow improvements came about through this process. I worked with Sam Rucks, Marc Thompson, and Jeff Horal from World Art, as well as Ethan Scheu and Aaron Cruz for Palette. Mark Goldsworthy was responsible for the incredible skies and storms of Europa. The Lighting Team - Mike Poe, Thad Steffen, Lani Ming, Ryan Kamins - thoroughly knocked it out of the park this time, and I couldn't have been happier with our results.
