Mix 3D / 2D Animated Short made in UE 5.6

Here’s a short I just wrapped on a few days ago. Started out as a quick sketch animatic over Christmas and finished this in two weeks. I used mostly Unreal Engine and animated all within that. I also used the Odyssey plugin to add additional 2D effects over on top of it. I liked the mixed media look of Spiderverse and the Ninja Turtle movie so this was a lot of fun to approach it that way. I also had to write a few new tools for Unreal as my goal was to not have to animate in another package. This is based off of a webcomic I started last year called “Ancient China of Mars”. If you want to find out more you can go to the main Ancient China of Mars Website . Here’s the vertical version on instagram Enjoy!
