[SHORT FILM] - This Little Piggy - My first ever UE4 project

Community Showcase Game Development

I decided to try and build our latest short film in Unreal Engine 4. Here it is:

From the image below you might guess what our inspiration for this film was. :slight_smile:

So, we at Pengu Studios are looking into expanding to the app & game market. By building our films in Unreal we could look into building a game out of the project without starting everything from scratch.

Modo was used for Modeling & Animation tweaking.

Mixamo provided all base animations & rigging for the characters.

Allegorithmic Substance Painter & Designer were used for all texturing.

I was happy to discover to export a Z-pass from UE4, so I could then do some post work in After Effects.

There is a long learning path ahead, but this might just be the workflow we stick with for a while.

Cheers!
