DURATION: 12hrs (4x3hrs)

COST: CAD $595+ HST

DESCRIPTION:

Unreal Engine is at the forefront of Virtual Production, leading with advanced real-time 3D creation tools for photo-real visuals and immersive experiences. This introductory four-session course will give participants a working understanding of Unreal Engine 5.8 newest real-time toolset. Learn through hands-on lessons the fundamentals of Unreal Engine’s user interface and navigation; work with Quixel and Marketplace assets; scene building; setting up basic cinematic quality lighting; simple sequencing (using Sequencer for camera animation); and final rendering. These tools enable the creation of high quality environments with photo realistic and stylized cinematics, animated characters, visual effects and immersive audio.

NOTE: Participants must have at least some experience working with 3D applications.

This course will be delivered virtually via an online platform (Zoom) and a meeting link will be sent prior to the start date.

Unreal Engine Fundamentals focuses on creating an environment and virtual cinematics and does not cover real-time compositing techniques with live video feeds and LED walls, green screens, or other virtual production techniques.
