Utilizing World Creator for Halo: Outpost Discovery

CG Supervisor - Falcon's Creative Group


In my distinguished career in themed entertainment design, I had the honor of collaborating with world-renowned firms such as Falcon’s Creative Group. As CG Supervisor, I spearheaded the creation of immersive digital media and interactive content for diverse venues, such as the traveling Halo Outpost Discovery event. This event, with its multiple attractions, posed unique challenges, one of them being "The Ring Experience," which required the creation of vast, diverse environments visible in a 360-degree field of view.



Given the high resolution, frame rates, tight budget, and limited timeframe, it was crucial to find a solution that enabled quick iteration while meeting the creative intent. Having beta tested World Creator 2, I was eager to implement it in this project. This real-time procedural terrain and landscape generator was the perfect fit due to its ability to swiftly convert all our environment concept art into fully 3D navigable environments.



World Creator not only allowed us to establish the landscapes but also to rapidly visualize lighting and environmental conditions. We could manipulate haze, time of day, cloud coverage, and instance foliage, among other elements. Once the selections were made, I exported the geometry and distribution maps, working closely with the 3D asset department to texture and incorporate additional photogrammetry scans to enhance quality and detail.


The software's capability to export geometry at different levels of detail proved invaluable. We were able to provide optimized scenes to our animation team for final camera path layout and our lighting and compositing department for preliminary lighting stages and matte painting of skies and distant backgrounds.



The implementation of World Creator, an exceptional real-time terrain generation tool, put us ahead of schedule. The client's approval led to not just meeting project requirements but also adding a special ending for fans. It is experiences like these that underscore the importance of future-proof tools like World Creator in my production process, enabling the creation of ever more immersive and compelling digital landscapes.
