Just like that, November has passed and the year is almost over! Here are five projects we didn’t want you to miss from a month likely filled with get-togethers and holiday prep to get you motivated for the month ahead!
Alan Campos – In The Misty Morning…
This dreamy, fairy-tale vision of a red-hooded figure appreciating the misty morning path is simple, serene, and informed by a lot of reference material the artist gathered from parks in Vancouver.
Steven Cormann – The Way Home (the lonely astronaut)
ILM artist Steven Cormann created this image with a story in mind; between the ruins of a strange city overrun by vegetation, a traveler from another world searches for a way home in striking blue hues, cool tones interrupted only by the light sources and transport vessel’s paint.
Silvia Lawson-Vilches – The Aftermath
“The Aftermath,” is another fantastic example of a compelling composition achieved through thoughtful lighting design. The peaceful environment extends beyond the chaos of the apocalypse and brings the viewer into the somewhat cathartic peace that comes after humanity’s annihilation.

6 Kopi Under Studios’ stylized short-film done entirely inside of UE4 is a testament to what can be crafted within the real-time engine (especially with a talented and motivated team like these DigiPen Singapore students!)
WonKwan Jeon – Forest of the Piano
Based off the art artist Yuriko Ito made for the anime with the same name: the piano standing in the forest is a safe & peaceful place where the protagonist, Kai, can express himself through what is, to anyone else touching it, a broken piano.

Though not as stylized as the trees found in 6 Kopi Under Studio’s, “The Way Home,” the bright hue of the Tibetan cherry’s trunk and its blooming flowers add a little more flair than your average broadleaf
