The Deep Above First Hunt: a world submerged in darkness

Published on January 08, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

A universe where light is a precious commodity

In a future where a colossal ocean rises above humanity, plunging it into twilight, the only hope lies in the Lumathans, majestic marine creatures of splendor. Their glow is the only source of energy and light for a civilization trapped in despair.

The first hunt

First Hunt takes us a century before the events of The Deep Above: Last Lights, presenting the first expedition in search of the light of the Lumathans. This story narrates the moment when humanity, in its struggle to survive, decides to capture and extract the power of these creatures.

β€œIn a world without sun, the only light comes from the gods of the ocean.”

An impressive visual spectacle

From its beginnings, this project has stood out for its striking artistic design and its immersive cinematography. Every frame reflects the duality of this universe: the hypnotic beauty of the marine depths and the human desperation to cling to life.

VFX: a unique visual narrative

The VFX breakdown of First Hunt shows the effort behind the fusion of CGI and narrative. From the creation of reflections on the water to the representation of the mystical glow of the Lumathans, every detail has been carefully designed to immerse the viewer in this world.

A prelude to Last Lights

The Deep Above First Hunt is not only a visual feat, but also a story that explores the impact of humanity on the unknown. Its captivating atmosphere and innovative use of visual effects lay the foundation for Last Lights, where the consequences of hunting the Lumathans will define the fate of humanity a century later.
