Mos Eisley Street/ Cantina Entrance
I had the chance to recreate the entrance to the Mos Eisley Cantina—an absolute treat to work on. The scene takes place at night as Mando walks down the street toward the cantina. While the immediate entrance was built as a practical façade, the surrounding cityscape and large junk pile had to be created entirely from scratch. I also added distant flying starships and custom crowd simulations to bring more life and movement into the shot. Overall, it was a really fun sequence to develop.

Mos Pelgo Environment
Mos Pelgo was constructed as a partial physical set that required substantial digital extension. Using the provided lidar scans and on-set photography, I rebuilt each structure and added additional architecture to complete the town. It was a fun opportunity to pay homage to classic Tatooine—blending the practical set’s aesthetic with selective creative expansion where the environment needed to feel larger or more lived-in. Because the Krayt Dragon ultimately tears through the area, I also incorporated damage-ready elements into the props and buildings so they could interact naturally with the creature’s path of destruction.
