More experiments in Unreal Engine for virtual filmmaking! I attempt to use a single camera for motion capture to recreate a classic scene from 'Planes, Trains, & Automobiles!' Can one camera capture the subtleties of performance?

@HwoodScrptReadr I’ve been on a big 70s movie kick lately and I’ve found so many interesting gems with great character actors and performances. It bummed me out since now movies are almost all corporate content.
@HwoodScrptReadr Yeah they spend a fortune. I think the infrastructure and craft of model making is largely gone, and VFX heavy movies being a dime a dozen now, there isn’t the same kind of pressure to prove as earlier films to prove how capable CG is.
@HwoodScrptReadr I’ve seen some interesting YouTube videos and posts recently that say CG looked better 20 years ago. I don’t disagree. Might be a byproduct of the VFX industry being squeezed for resources. Studios trying to cut costs on labor leading to a compression of delivery timelines.
Not too bad for a high school dropout! Honored and humbled to join the WGA as a current member! I’ve wanted to be a screenwriter since elementary school. Who knows what the future holds - but I love the craft, the people I work with, and the ones who helped me get here. ❤️ 🎥 🚀
