Alone in the dark - Cemetery and oily room anomaly lighting

Here is my work on the cemetery area we visit in chapter 2 of Alone in the dark. I was in charge of the exterior lighting of the level. The goal was to achieve an early morning/dusk and I leaned more into a purple hue with dashed of orange to compliment the lighting from the candles and the streetlamps. The challenge here was to make it dark enough for the element of horror while making sure the player could still see enough to navigate.

The last screenshot is one of a smaller area where the player is briefly transported from the mansion. It's a room we call the oily room, which is the same room as one in the mansion except everything is turned supernatural and on fire, like the character is spiraling into madness.

Working on this project has been an absolute blast and I was lucky to be part of an amazing and talented team:
