Book DescriptionVirtual Filmmaking with Unreal Engine 5 is the first Unreal Engine book to guide you through the complete process of virtual film production. Encompassing the full spectrum of filmmaking, this book demonstrates the use of an industry-standard tool used by studios such as Disney, ILM, DNEG, and Framestore. Walking through the process systematically, you’ll first collect references and create a simple storyboard to plan your shots. Then you’ll begin to create virtual environments, importing 3D models and adding materials and textures to create photorealistic, dynamic worlds. After that, you’ll learn how to create actors using highly customizable MetaHumans, understanding how to import, re-target, and animate them. Finally, you’ll bring it all together with cinematic lighting and camera animation before exporting your film. By the end of this book, you’ll have honed your skills, discovered new tools for your toolkit, and gained the confidence to work on your virtual film projects in Unreal Engine 5, leveraging Quixel Megascans, Lumen, Nanite, and MetaHuman technology.What you will learnGrasp the principles of photography and the art of storytellingCollect references and create storyboardsDiscover Unreal Engine’s hidden features and useful keyboard shortcutsExplore the capabilities of Quixel Megascans, Lumen, Nanite, and MetaHumansAdopt cinematic techniques to achieve professional-looking shotsCreatively apply Lumen Global Illumination and Reflections techniquesUse multiple virtual cameras and apply post-production techniquesImplement best practices for optimization, post processing, and rendering
