- Description
Hello. My name is Lee Min-hyeong, who is making animations. While participating in this challenge, I envisioned a scene where lighting plays a big role, I thought of an environment where a mysterious tree grew over a ruined city. I tried to direct the work with a mysterious and mystical feeling of the lives that continue to live due to a single tree growing in the ruins.
The keywords that inspired me were trees, mushrooms, fairies, and ruins.
I proceeded with the level design of the huge tree, the magnificent roots, the mysterious mushrooms growing on the tree, and the mysterious cave that is the source of the tree’s life on the background of the ruins.
The tree roots were animated using the keyframes of the sequence in Unreal Engine for the tree root asset.
I tried to use the material switcher feature to make the effect of lighting on the scene more effective.
Taking camera shots, I mainly invested time in research and development of lighting control.
It was fun doing this challenge. It was a great opportunity to become more familiar with and develop Unreal Engine 5.
thank you!
