In this session, we begin with a structured introduction to Unreal Engine 5, covering the core interface layout, viewport controls, essential navigation workflows, and key editor components to build a strong technical foundation. In the second part of the lesson, we dive into Unreal’s material system—examining how materials are constructed, how nodes define surface behavior, and how parameters such as roughness, metallic, and normal maps influence real-time rendering. This video provides a clear, technically grounded overview designed for beginners who want to understand both the engine’s workspace and the fundamentals of creating and manipulating materials.
