I recently wrote a breakdown article detailing my relighting of the Desert Gas Station scene using Unreal Engine 5. This project, focused on color palette, ambience, and mood, stemmed from my fascination with a particular shot in the movie Sicario. My goal was to experiment with Davinci Resolve to craft a look that would aid me in recreating the dusk ambiance of an exterior scene, complete with a cloudy sky, a gritty appearance, and artificial lighting. I summarized each aspect into concise points and included workflow steps for clarity.
