What do you get when you cross multi character motion matched interactions, active ragdoll physics, and some awesome mocap?

Cinema.

Here's a little sneak peek on what we're working towards. I usually don't like to share early but this was too good to keep hidden, enjoy!

Also you'll want to unmute for this ;)

I'm incredibly proud of this release and excited to get it out to you all.
We are now pushing into new territory with what you can do with the animation tools in Unreal.

@rveenewman Would be cool to see an Unreal Rigs section.. :)

Congrats id Software on 35 years! I’m grateful to have contributed to even just a few exciting years of that incredible legacy.

Thank you to everyone who’s stepped into our worlds.

@ACarmackArtist @Super70sSports Loved that game! One of our neighbors had the arcade cabinet at their house…

@GhislainGir If you’re doing animation in sequencer you can just use a timewarp curve ..

You can timewarp anim sequences or sub sequences or the whole level sequence itself..

If you need it to be more dynamic and in game and on the fly, then that would be more involved..

In case you missed the Tarantino directed “Yukis Revenge” premiere in Fortnite this weekend..
It’s a lost chapter from Kill Bill, made entirely in Unreal inside of Fortnite.

Enjoy!!

What a coincidence!!!

We just so happened to be releasing the new season of Fortnite today. And look what it is… The Simpsons.

Our Cinematics team knocked this one out of the park!!!
Again fully animated and rendered in the Unreal Engine… ;)

[The Simpsons @TheSimpsons]

Woah, Fortnite has landed in Springfield! It’s a shameless corporate mashup you won’t want to miss. Jump in later today! Until then check out our trailer.

I can't believe this was 30 years ago!!!

I had the pleasure of animating shots on this. It was the project I was hired at PDI for. It was such a fun project with an incredible team.
