One of the workflows I helped advance and lead for Destiny 2 was our static compositing pipeline for marketing visuals. When we were creating marketing content for #Destiny2, we always needed strong key visuals for weapons, characters, abilities, and other in-game elements. Unlike a traditional gameplay screenshot, where everything is baked into one static image, composited shots let us isolate individual elements and light them more precisely. That gave us a lot more flexibility to build scenes with better legibility, clearer focus, stronger lighting, improved contrast, and a more intentional overall look. One of the biggest strengths of compositing is having access to individual layers in Photoshop. That layered approach not only makes the editing process easier, but also makes the final artwork much more flexible. Images can be adapted for trailer motion graphics, reworked for print, or pushed further as creative needs evolve. Destiny 2 composites are built using Adobe Photoshop alongside in-game captures. Using advanced development tools, we light, capture, and isolate characters, weapons, and props directly from the game environment, all of which were originally created by the talented Bungie 3D art teams. Those assets are then brought into Photoshop, where they’re cut out and assembled into custom scenes using layered compositions and visual effects. The composites highlighted below are a few of the Destiny 2 pieces I’ve worked on that are meaningful to me. Let me know what your favorite is!

#WATCH | Gurugram, Haryana: On reports of Pakistan receiving advanced US air-to-air missiles, Maj Gen (Dr)GD Bakshi (Retd.) says, "Pakistan's F-16 fighter fleet already has some AIM-120 C air-to-air missiles beyond visual range, which they used when they clashed with our MiG-21, resulting in Wing Commander Abhinandan receiving the Vir Chakra... We did not have BVRs back then and relied on outdated dogfight tactics, leading to losses. However, we now have highly effective BVRs... This is a significant difference—it becomes decisive in head-to-head combat, as the radar can detect and shoot you down beyond visual range, even without you seeing it... That is why having a BVR range is very important. We also have Akash 1, Akash 2, and now Akash 3, which will have a range of 300-400 km. But this clearly shows that America is now on the verge of becoming an enemy of India. It is not only selling these missiles to Pakistan, but also to Saudi Arabia. Furthermore, given the pact between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, it's possible that the Saudis might transfer some of these missiles to Pakistan during a conflict. We need to be mindful of this and exercise caution..."

This has to be one of the best fight scenes in the entire Fast & Furious franchise. Letty is seriously one of the most badass characters ever. She can take a brutal beating and still keep coming. And whenever the women fight in Fast & Furious, they really go at it. No guns, no fancy tricks just punches, slaps, grappling and pure intensity until one of them can’t keep going. The Letty vs. Kara fight was especially insane. Letty and Kara going head to head was already a perfect matchup, but knowing Kara is played by a professional MMA fighter while Letty is played by such a talented stunt performer makes the whole scene even cooler. The fight felt raw, physical and intense from start to finish. Definitely one of the most memorable fights in the whole franchise.

Art directing marketing visuals for Destiny 2 has been especially rewarding because it has given me the opportunity to work with so many talented artists whose work l've admired for years. It has also allowed me to hire and develop both internal and external creative talent to support the breadth of visual content required for a live service game like Destiny 2. One of the ongoing challenges of art direction is finding the right balance in how much visual direction to provide. How broad or specific my feedback needs to be often depends on an artist's strengths, our working relationship, and their familiarity with the brand. Over the past couple of years, I've focused more deeply on art direction for Bungie, and it has been a continual process of building on what has worked well while learning where I can improve. Below are a few #Destiny2 illustrations and composites I helped shape through creative and art direction that are meaningful to me. I'm grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with so many talented artists and agencies, and for the time, craft, and care they brought to these pieces. Special thanks to Sung Choi, Yohann Schepacz, Kai Zhou, Jacob Joyce, Drexis Animations, Miki Bishop, Christine Lim, Nat King, Stephen Boe, Gabriel Flauzino | FLZ 🎨 , Jacob Gonzalez, Derek Heisler, and BOND for their contributions.

How Martin Scorsese Uses AI: Prototyping Set Ideas By Bringing His Thoughts to Life Black Forest Labs CEO Robin Rombach explains to @jason: Jason: “You sat in a room with Marty Scorsese and showed him your tools, what was his reaction?” Rombach: “He clearly has a vision in his head of a scene or scenery where maybe a new movie will be shot, and he's trying to explore that. We basically looked at the scenery of a village in Eastern Europe somewhere, and he was describing it. We saw some outputs, we iterated on the outputs. Getting the mental picture of something out of your head and communicating it in a visual way by making these images, or a series of images, just makes it easier to communicate and convey an idea of what is actually in your head. I think that's one of the very interesting and powerful ways to use this technology.” Jason: “Is to get the inspiration, to get the vision, out of his head onto an image?” Rombach: “Yeah, language ultimately is a little bit of a lossy communication medium, right? It's also interpreted in different ways, but then visual information is so rich. An image or video, there's so much signal in it, and it's just another way of communicating.

I FINALLY managed to create a point cloud animation 💪 Here is how I did it using #GaussianSplatting, #Blender and 2 add-ons from KIRI Engine - 3D Scanner App . Creating point cloud animations has always been a dream of mine (inspired by masters like ), but the tech to create the point clouds and visual effects was always a huge barrier. Then I discovered these 2 Blender add-ons from Kiri engine after I had a chat with Jack Wang in my podcast, and it changed everything: 1- Create a splat with any tool or app you want 2- Install the free "Point Animate" add-on in Blender 3- Drag the 2 .ply you want to morph from --> to 4- Set source and destination in the add-on side panel At this point you could play around with various settings like noise scatter, noise intensity, wind and more. If you want to combine with the splat as well you can get also the 3DGS render to add cool dissolving effects, fancy lighting and really get the most out of your scans. If you end up using it please tag me. I am curious to see what much more skilled people than me can put together 😉

We are publishing our first deep dive on what we believe is one of the most challenging layers in egocentric data - SLAM and VIO in the context of long-horizon state tracking. We break down how SLAM and VIO fail in egocentric settings - visual features vanish at close range, depth sensors saturate, fast head motion blurs frames, and these failures don't always occur in isolation. They hit at the exact same moment, leading to compounding errors and making the downstream data unusable. We believe the foundation for high-quality egocentric data demands sub-centimeter precision over long episodes ranging from a few minutes to up to an hour.

Completed 2 years at smallest.ai yesterday (We also announced a round the same day) It's been one hell of a ride. Being at a place from day 0, where the office is your home sometimes, has its privileges. You watch the company grow. You watch the people grow. You grow with them. Honestly, it sounds cliche, but time here genuinely did not feel the same. 2 years feels closer to 6 months. Cannot imagine being on it without these two and several more talented folks along the way! Evolved in ways I cannot explain. To a much bigger year, and to always learning 🚀

If I'm to believe anything I've seen on X in recent days, our elections are bought by billionaires, some of whom also manipulate said elections with space lasers (which seems like a lot more effort than just buying them the old-fashioned way). Some think our retired vice admirals may be wearing hyper-realistic silicon masks on the news (the kind the CIA has had since the 90s), but those don’t make your head vertically smaller, and if you even dare to ask what in the Temu version of hell is going on in these two clips that were supposedly shot days apart, well AI is quick to quiet your brain with, “the visual effect was simply an artifact of studio lighting, camera compression, and his natural appearance on screen”. Because gaslighting to maintain the Stockholm Syndrome that passes for consent in the absolute clownshow dumpster fire that our political system has mutated into is the only way this generic SNL sketch is able to continue.

The most prominent example of a film that was financially viable because of generative AI was “Here” by Robert Zemeckis. Starring Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, it shows a couple living through multiple decades. The film’s budget was ~$50m and wouldn’t be able to cover traditional process for de-aging: ▫️Make-up: Takes hour to put on and can make actors look 10 years younger (but not 50 as the film requires) ▫️CGI: Expensive and long (per NYT, “Persuading us that we’re watching Hanks and Wright in their 20s would have required hundreds of VFX artists, tens of millions of dollars and months of postproduction work.”) Zemeckis says “Here” was able to be made in 2024 but not in 2021 (due to CGI costs). Also by using generative AI, Hanks and Wright could act more naturally without thick make-up (or those CGI dots) on their face. The AI effects were done by Metaphysics (the company’s content head is Ed Ulbrich, the former CEO of Digital Domain, James Cameron’s FX firm). Metaphysics AI tools were particularly useful because of how much video and images there are of Hanks and Wright over the decades (won’t be the case for all actors). Some of those images include 1994’s “Forrest Gump”, which was also directed by Zemeckis starring Hanks and Wright. That banger used a lot of advanced aging effects for the time and won the 1995 Best Visual Effects Oscar. A best case scenario might be instead of a studio spending $200m for a single blockbuster, it could finance and staff up 4 films at $50m (which could reach same visual quality bar using new tech). *** More from NYT: “Here” featurette:

The most prominent example of a film that was financially viable because of generative AI was “Here” by Robert Zemeckis. Starring Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, it shows a couple living through multiple decades.
