- Description:
This is experiment to show case rendering 3d anime based on 2d reference with Unreal Engine, i choose to pick the fight of samurai/sword with japanese style because its always good/epic and we can’t see it in real life everyday, only in entertainment media. Years ago this kind of things will take a long time, but now it’s not really hard. Is this the future or will change the whole industry? maybe, why not, easier scenes faster to produce with all available pre made assets in Unreal Marketplace.
My aim learning here is searching for workflow to combine the most advance vfx thats available today and combine the unreal engine fast render but still have issues with alembic, vertex animation textures or the fbx for cloth sim/soft body sim in sequencer, will keep testing it. Enjoy !
