RON DOMINGUE

Ron Domingue is a New Orleans-based art director and 3D visual artist with 25+ years across graphic and motion design, product identity, and 3D. His current practice centers on environment art and cinematic short films built in Unreal Engine 5, using Nanite, Lumen, and volumetric lighting to push real-world camera settings inside the engine.

Part of the job, as he sees it, is illusion: creating environments that feel lived in, believable, and cinematic. Work that doesn't look like it came from a computer or AI..

That practice extends to his Cinematic Field Guide, a reference framework he's been developing for real-time production workflows. He collaborates with virtual production studio LucyXR and was previously a designer at Shutterstock + TurboSquid.
