Hello, I'm Chris (Christophocles). I'm a 3D artist and musician working on a surreal, low-poly sci-fi ghost story called “Pitch was the Night”
The Story:
The film focuses on a lone astronaut at the edge of the universe, aboard a derelict science experiment. A lush garden lab known as “The Arboretum” is this astronaut's last connection to a planet he’s never lived on. A chance encounter sends him spiraling into the haunted interior of his dying ship.
Visuals & Audio:
I've always been drawn to late 90s PS1/N64 graphics, so I'm pairing low-poly modeling with modern volumetric fog and lighting in Blender/Unreal Engine to create an eerie, liminal vibe. I did all of the modeling, lighting and story writing myself as well.
Follow Along:
I share regular devlogs and WIP updates on Discord. Check out some more teasers or follow along to stay up to date:

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the lighting and atmosphere!
