Corridor To Nowhere

It all begins with an idea. It all begins with an idea. The vision for this project was to create a mini vignette—a narrative conveyed through light and simplicity. The inspiration struck when a single image of a Victorian corridor lodged itself in my mind.

To start, I focused on fleshing out the environment, utilising modular assets from Megascans. Lighting played a crucial role in this vignette, and the goal was to test the new (at the time) lumen lighting setup in Unreal Engine 5.

The interplay of light and shadow serves to evoke a sense of nostalgia and mystery, drawing viewers into the story being told. Ultimately, this project reflects the power of simplicity in storytelling, showcasing how a well-crafted environment and thoughtful lighting can convey deep emotions and narratives without the need for elaborate dialogue or action.
