Myles Griffen - Evil Factory Environment

Machinery Chamber Render

Midjourney Prompt: "You reach a chamber filled with towering machinery, their metallic surfaces reflecting the dim lighting. Describe the intimidating presence of these machines and the sounds of their operation echoing through the vast space."

I was tasked with creating a set of stage visuals for music producer R2 the Specialist's track, Tragedy from the Tragedy EP. This drum n' bass release features unique phrasing, metallic, echoing soundscapes, and heavy basslines, reminiscent of heavy, haunting machinery and fluorescent lights.

To create concept renders, I used Midjourney with highly descriptive, narrative driven prompts. This was the first time I'd worked with such detailed concept art prior to designing an environment. I interpreted smudgy, AI generated artifacts into whimsical, strange machinery, and used the concept art to guide my decisions regarding look development. Materials and rendering were done with Unreal Engine 5. Multipass compositing was done in Adobe AfterEffects with Red Giant suite.
