Cybertron Fight Arena Environment

This flashback sequence—showing how Optimus Prime bought time for Bumblebee to escape—was built from the same asset base used for the Cybertron opening. For this part of the film, I created a new area specifically designed for Optimus’s fight against a group of Decepticons, ensuring it matched the established visual style. This included building a fresh combat arena, adding new Transformers-inspired structural elements, and making adjustments to the existing cyc to shape the far-background views. For the final pull-up shot, I focused on emphasizing the layered, tech-heavy look of the environment, which worked especially well once the interactive fire lighting was integrated.
