In this session recorded at Unreal Fest Bali, Dane Armour of Prior explores how Unreal Engine is transforming the way filmmakers approach previsualization.
With over 15 years of experience in the film and VFX industry, Dane has embraced Unreal Engine as a powerful tool for accelerating the preproduction process that enables filmmakers to work quickly, collaboratively, and creatively in real time.
Dane shares his hands-on experience of using Unreal Engine for the ‘Babiru’ teaser, an Epic MegaGrant-supported sci-fi feature film proof of concept. Through live Zoom sessions and remote collaboration, Dane worked with director Nguyen-Anh Nguyen (‘Hyperlight’, ‘Akira Project’), in a dynamic and flexible workflow which enabled them to create a whopping 17 minutes of animatic footage within weeks, not months.
