How I Made a Godzilla Cinematic in Unreal Engine 5

[@udamaefule7728]

shout out to the person that made the godzilla model, that shii is clean

[@JoshToonen]

Agreed :D

[@GauravUniyalofficial]

that model is also available on maya's official website

[@greatikechukwu4032]

I want GODZILLA shorts with AMAZING graphics made by people using UNREAL ENGINE 5, who are paid more to work less, *AND I'M NOT KIDDING!*

[@Schyferyel]

You don't need million dollar budgets... ...Just maaaybe a few thousand though, because someone's gotta pay that modeler and that character rigger. It's a stretch that they'll do that for free for everyone.

[@kurokishizx]

unless ur network is fantastic, you're capable and experienced, reliable friendly and approachable. They might

[@TZ19999]

There's a lot of great 3d artists that sell fully rigged high quality models for Godzilla monsters for cheap. Some are even free.

[@KENSHIROez3260]

@MMDCharizard have been doing it for free to MMD animator since 10 years ago, his rig even have a very high quality, MMD is not exactly a high end animating software but we are talking about character rigger here, we did should pay if we commission him though but still

[@HarryClipzFilmz]

@@kurokishizx I want to network but don't know who and how. I got skill in animation, and screenwriting i need some pals to work with

[@greatikechukwu4032]

That's... THAT'S... *THAT'S UNREAL!!* 😮😲🫨🤯

[@MAITTREOFFICIAL]

Hey Josh, amazing job in this project! How long did it take you from the beginning to the completion of this project?

[@Dinovart]

A game like this would be phenominal. sadly, there are only a few modern games allowing to play as godzilla on PC, most of them only have mods which add godzilla. Dedicated kaiju brawlers arerarity, like Gigabash.

[@Alpha_GameDev-wq5cc]

It wouldn’t look anything like the render… games have to run realtime. It would look so bad that you won’t bother buying it at all. This is extremely difficult unless you want everything to be pre-rendered and scripted at which point it’s not a game but a fancy cutscene

[@Dinovart]

@@Alpha_GameDev-wq5cc Indeed. However, if it is optimized and have quality like ARK: survival evolvled mods, I definately buy it.

[@gavinderulo12]

I dont think playing as godzilla would be fun for more than 30 minutes

[@Zulushi]

Awesome work on this Josh!

[@Друг-р4з]

Shout out to the dude crazy enough to take on godzilla in a biplane.

[@The_Hoodie_Guy]

this is soo amazing!! but do you really want use to compare that to the film visuals?? The film visuals were so realistic!! this can make up for the great in-game visuals but movie realism is on another level!!

[@skateurself]

I like how he makes this look relatively easy but anyone who has ever created something from scratch knows this is complicated still lol.

[@misusatriyo]

honestly, i'm pretty tired of seeing big action sequence on a foggy rainy night. can we have more clear day big action sequences?

[@wingedhussar1453]

If u can do that then you could make a movie in a year

[@Rajveer_Singh68]

*"My PC disliked your Video"* 💀😂

[@sammyt7981]

How has no one hired you as a VFX artist? You did a phenomenal job in fact I think you did so good you deserve an Oscar.

[@Gamess0000]

There is not much stuff right now due to strikes 😢 many talented people like him jobless

[@sammyt7981]

Yeah unfortunately, and it’s all because executives want to replace artist and animators for AI because “AI’s more technologically advance” and I hate AI for that. AI can be a good tool for helping certain parts of animation to look better, but it can’t replace some people’s job. That is why we need an artist and animators strike now so that they can get better pay and to show off more of their creative animation styles that’s not hyper realistic AI shit.

[@kurokishizx]

least he's profiting from this channel and his courses

[@TZ19999]

He works in the industry

[@cloudshifter]

He has been hired on the Dune movies among other stuff too. Right now however the industry is experiencing the dark ages for two reasons. Reason 1: Poor Ceo management of funds. Companies overspend on movies and series (like 100-200 mil) meaning that even if a medium becomes smashing success it can still go out business (Example is Tangowork studios that was close down by Microsoft after a very successful game they made that even won awards. Best case scenario the studio closes after a success, worst scenario and most common it makes nearly nothing back in revenue and the company is minus 40-120 mil. Their solution to this is not to fire the person managing money so carelessly but to fire the artists who are the backbone of those movies / series / games and put up the most work. Reason 2: There is a gigantic rat race with AI right now, every company wants to perfect "the definitive AI" that will replace a department group, primarily the VFX artist department. There are speculations about the animation industry as well but the first casualty is most likely going to be the vfx industry. These two reasons happen right now at the same time and as you guessed reason 1 with reason 2 synergize as higher ups see the artists as the main financial problem to why their media is not doing well. "Godzilla Minus One" is a great example of proper funding use as the movie had 15 mil overall budget for the movie, blew out every other Godzilla movie out of the water, is the highest rated and considered the best Godzilla movie ever made and is the first ever Godzilla film to win an Oscar.

[@AustinPlayzNothing]

Did some comparisons and Godzilla is between 354feet to 400 feet

[@UnitedWeStandFreedom]

I think Godzilla minus one also proved that . Awesome job btw .

[@poppi3362]

Could you please tell me where that glow/fog/cloud card scene at 7:14 is from?

[@celeoportillo5783]

SUBSCRIBED AND SMASHED THAT LIKE BUTTON!👉

[@DEADTUBERS_]

Brooo THE SHOT WHEN THERE SHOOTING HIS FACE IS SOOO REALISTIC!!!!!!!!

[@Kanoog]

It was UNREAL :)

[@sundayreview8152]

i wish unreal worked with my 1660ti .... tried it and my laptop began to smoke

[@Thebookofbiblestories]

😂😂😂😂😅😅

[@yatinramjat5193]

Bruh I'm using integrated graphics

[@KENSHIROez3260]

Mine popped up

[@HarryClipzFilmz]

Build you a PC, you can get everything, CPU, RAM, chassis, GPU's etc. on a payment plan so there's no excuse

[@Kingbob1244]

You should’ve done jets instead of biplanes because if they have helicopters then they’d probably use jets to but good job I could never do anything like that

[@ramdevcalope7653]

To people who don't know why watching this might create misconceptions, the reason why his VFX looks good and does work is because we are using either only our regular laptop screens or mobile phones to view these scenes in 8bit color. But if you view this work in a larger Screen it will show the flaws and bad details specially in IMAX screen that uses 16bit color that's why Double Negative and other effects house need thousands of artist to detail these shots in high spec computers.

[@kachow_artwork]

It was awesome to watch this Live and see you explain the process in detail!

[@SwoleKitchen]

Did you just say reaching out for help?!!!’

[@EliOrionHudson]

That animation is incredible 🎉

[@rayzdeelz130]

Yo don't you already work as a vfx artist?

[@gkeith64]

YaH shal'OM young family. May i inquire of thee, a question ❓ 🤔

[@EdNorty]

Woohoo!

[@KENSHIROez3260]

I CAN DO THIS AT HOME???!!!

[@raifle]

Can I ask what your PC system requirements before I try practicing unreal engine 5

[@MojoBrookhaven]

Godzilla isn’t a monster, he’s not the villain in the Godzilla movies. Stop portraying him as a “City destroyer”

[@SeaHorseOo]

Lets say AI got theyr hands on .blend files I've unintentionaly left in a backpack somewhere...?

[@MarioCola]

You were on UDS discord? I remember answering a question about this render ahahah kudos!

[@Mr_Kisch]

I think you need to do this again as I don't see it as a way that someone new to this could realistically follow and complete. this inspires no confidence and so far has just intimidated me. You are already a successful vfx artist who worked on the ACTUAL God zilla movie and still you needed the help of 3 other people to complete this project. I am not sure really who this video is for because not a chance one person will be able to do this on their own in the same time frame as you. You don't mention the price of the assets so this while nice to watch I just felt let down and demotivated at the end of it.

[@monqui10]

What’s your favorite video from this channel? I’m looking for recommendations!

[@rodolfoaraujovanucchi7395]

6:20 - Where did you find this building light pictures? Did you make them or downloaded in some website?

[@julianneEVdmca]

10:24 Yea, Everyone noticed the poor quality and weakness of the lights in first 2 sec of video. so ue3 cgi & 2009 lights. I just don't know why this boy was rapping so enthusiastically. noob

[@droneeia]

This is really amazing, and I enjoyed every second of it, but it bothers me A LOT that you used WWI biplanes with helis (that didn't exist at the time) in a city apparently from the 60's onward. What were you aiming for?

[@96ubme]

Awesome job! Really helpful stuff. Do you have tutorials or reference on making those glow cards with the depth fade node?

[@Javon-bu6px5uu7]

Overall, this animation was top-notch. I love it. It was so good. It seemed like a real movie.

[@RyDaCol]

You'r crazy. And I love it. Great work! Keep it up!!

[@carecaZ3]

Nice results, but not good ass the fills looks, bro GODZILLA in the movies You can see his drool in his mouth, every detail of the wet organs and muscles in his mouth, you can even see the bacterias in his mounth, you did ana amazing job, but bro... It's far from being the same as in the movies details

[@Anime_.Dreamer]

Could you please suggest a laptop suitable for VFX compositing work?

[@Bluemograph]

yeah its okay to use 1 or 2 scene with planar building but i think godzilla film way to complex with asset building where is needed from every angle itself so they create 3D Asset building in order to could shoot scene from everywhere they want ,good job you make it awesome its the right way to make 1-2 scene film

[@owenlongmusic7328]

Can you demonstrate how to use meta humans? Specifically facial expressions for a film?

[@JiTiAr35]

yeah makes you wonder why Pixar charge million if not hundreds of million dollars.

[@Shinesart]

Why propeller plane tho. It's not world war II setting. That's the only thing it gets me. The VFX is cool tho.

[@caffdamjio5418]

Josh toonen please how many laptops,equipment and Animators do I need to create Short animations?😢

[@aseemshort9256]

Second 🗿

[@blackspidermanisnotreal]

it was good.But the scenes were confusing.They are not matched well.

[@Zero_YT1527]

First

[@watchmeanimateYT]

this bts was badass!!

[@arnavtripathy2227]

Anyone know where I can find that Godzilla model? I wanna try to make my own little animation on it myself

[@giovannicaianiello7669]

Hi, I needed to watch the video again, I also signed up, how can I watch it again?

[@angusbradley1033]

Early gang lets goooo!!

[@arnosti1615]

Third 🎉

[@sdimon14]

Выпусти про эту игру, пж на этом движке

[@supercrazyfawful8779]

I think they got rid of that Godzilla model off turbo squid

[@JusTRandoM1993]

yeehh but it still looks like a game not exactly like in the movies

[@wutguycreations]

Im getting ambitious - Im VERY beginner level in Blender and I'm newly installing Unreal, but I saw this and now I feel motivated to make a Godzilla animation LMAO

[@godzillaxdestoroyah]

Is it just me or did I think of behemoth from monsterverse when he said a giant behemoth

[@dreamwevr]

What if not able to watch masterclass live can I still be able to get masterclass replay later

[@ATOMVISUAL]

really insane ! good job !

[@mikebrowning666]

I guess you couldn't really do this without using Nuke which is over 3000 a year for a subscription. Its defintely way out of my budget range.

[@benokristanto1166]

Can the Blender application make a Godzilla movie like UNREAL ENGINE?

[@dondahighhh12]

Short answer: yes BUT Unreal has more resources in the marketplace to help you imo

[@JeremyRash-o7i]

Make a Godzilla game with unreal and I buy it

[@Cultured_.people69]

Heyy Josh~ Love your videoss. I would love to know the types of movies in set where you used unreal engine :)) PLease share us some knowledge about working on set using a game engine (Whch definitely dosent sound suitable for cinematics since its game engine)

[@ichigen511]

This is awesome. Can you believe that UE5 is free? Crazy world we live in. I do realize they will take 5% of your profits if your project makes at least 1 million dollars. At that point I don't think abyone would care though lol.

[@faithaloneinchristalone5824]

did you have to use muzzle flash, bullet strecks in game mode or were they added post, Fantastic looking you go man!!!

[@peterpan3634]

you did good job but it missing more realty in the scene

[@JordanWilliams-vh6em]

Hold the gosh darn phone. Unreal engine is free?!

[@KirillMingazov-z2y]

will the rtx 4060 and 7600x pull such a scene in ue5? just wondering

[@JoshToonen]

Absolutely, this was rendered on a 3080

[@isaip93]

I wanna learn this but seems like years to learn or master 😢😅

[@7gpanda744]

Wow... that few seconds scene took a week.

[@mrsmith5114]

Cool video, awful shirt ;)

[@vasanthvelanm]

So thats Pure Skill and Creativity ... wishing u a good luck with all future projects ..Good Work Buddy

[@Agent-57]

Suscribed. That is some serious skill. I am starting to learn UE5 but first I need to complete my 3DS Max course.

[@dreamwevr]

What is minimum system requirements I need to use unreal

[@damiankratos01]

Josh , can you show us your PC Specs please?

[@nicolespeaks3257]

I need to know what pc was used or how to build one!

[@akilagamage7327]

Holy shit that looks amazing! Keep up the good work. 🔥😍 Btw what are the current specs you are running? 🙌🏽💪🏽

[@roopakraam759]

do you have a course for how to model the godzilla, buildings, etc..? i mean 3d modelling courses

[@shivangipriya4153]

I could not understood " Deepth pass" any video for this matter ? Thank you

[@HarryClipzFilmz]

Who do I even email to network to work on a film?

[@AshrafShourav-sd9lm]

Is unreal engine available for android 😊

[@harsh_2277]

Make a video on sound effects

[@salazar665]

That is amazing.. can you do a more detailed tutorial on getting the depth pass from ue and doing that smoke, explosion maskings in nuke!?

[@Looter_NA_FN]

Dude this was amazing I’m creating my own Godzilla short on unreal and need some help animating I have never used unreal so I need someone who is pretty good at animating on unreal I have a model and everything just need some animation help

[@crisppxls]

This is cool. Any reason why you didn't use Unreal Reader in Nuke?

[@dreamwevr]

Very impressive!!! What computer reside I need to use unreal engine other programs in this video

[@daviskreeling7062]

"A creature".... from a little movie called Starship Troopers

[@Kunal_Patil.007]

Cant u add an atomic breath?🤔

[@ЕленаГорячева-х5ц]

Realy cool❤❤❤❤❤

[@nicholasdiudin]

ахуительно !!!

[@user-gz9wt8vj7f]

So you didn't make Godzilla you just bought a model?

[@BIG_MAN_99]

Looks like it

[@22cine]

Do directors nurse actors from childhood, feed them and educate them before taking them to a movies?

[@mugenpuchi9739]

it's a free model i have it too

[@apex_prey]

No better way to make sure design continuity is on point. So. I don't even remotely see an issue.

[@AntonioMaciaMartinez]

Ofc isnt a issue! Otherwise how can we recreate it??

[@landplayz]

That last shot was amazing

[@tacoguysean868]

AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!
