Unreal Engine 4 - Doorway to Heaven Scene

I purposely chose a night time/snowy scene for this one as I wanted to provide a very strong contrast as well as make this scene feel almost magical. I really wanted the doorway to feel a bit out of place and to really make it feel like a portal to another world.
All assets used in this scene were bought from the Unreal Marketplace.
The song used in this video is Aerial View by Tybercore

Finally, a new video! I love your unreal scences and they inspire me to create more scences in unreal 4. Kudos to you Frank.

[@evilmrfrank]

That's awesome to hear, Thanks! :)

Now you should do what is on the other side of the portal!!

[@Mrjaksonn12345]

Beautiful, i can see the improvement in skill over the course of your videos

Merry christmas ! 🌲

[@evilmrfrank]

Merry Christmas!

[@StephaneCharre]

Hey, can you show me your UltraDynamicSky settings + skylight and lightsource ? I'm having problems to recreate such an ambiance... :/ , thanks

[@unclearpixels]

please do one from the other side like heaven to the snow place.

[@evilmrfrank]

I've really wanted to do a heaven scene for quite some time but I don't think I have the correct assets for it, would be very difficult to do good too.

[@unclearpixels]

hopefully someday. And i been really wanting to learn Unreal Engine. Any tips if i wanted to learn self taught

[@AngelOf1000]

Awesome, wish I had the time to make something like this. Far too busy atm. Have a good Christmas and New Year.

Oh my God it's beautiful. Oh men

[@jwls8483]

Wowowowowo duuude that's freaking amazing! What type of lighting is this scene using? Must have taken so loong to bake this scene

[@antonyaz3506]

it's amazing

[@soumyasutar003]

amazing

[@mattymatt2323]

One of your best

[@RipRecords]

Do you still have this project? Would you like to implement it in a music video??

[@celestialemperor1178]

Stunning work! Why not putting some of them together and release it as a final product? Just walking in your scenes with some good music / sound fx would be amazing!!!!!

[@evilmrfrank]

I've been putting some thought into doing something like this actually. Unfortunately probably couldn't just walk through them as its not really made for that but thinking about releasing these as a sort of benchmarking tool for people and potentially selling it for cheap :)

[@NodRodge]

you should of had sexy heaven beams coming out of it.. also those are some very dumb birds

[@NodRodge]

He's my brother, I am allowed to be critical :P

[@NodRodge]

both!

[@NodRodge]

ya man thats perfect!! :)

[@vytasatvmanstudios]

Is the LOD for the trees automatically set or do you have control over it? I as cause I wonder if some of the LOD changes could be prevented. It feels like a few of the trees just appear but I know it is an LOD change.

[@MrNutz001]

the only thing this video needs, is a K-mart :p

[@vytasatvmanstudios]

Does UE4 allow you to disable LOD so that there is no objects popping into the scene as the camera moves over the terrain?

[@mhnoni]

looks beautiful, any tip on how to record such footage from ue4, are you rendering it as picture then combine it later to make video?

[@evilmrfrank]

I'm using the newer Sequencer tools and they have a built in record to video tool.

[@TimmyTurner421]

Are all these maps part of something bigger? Or ist it just for fun?

[@evilmrfrank]

Just for fun and a good way to practice various techniques and ideas, although I have entertained the idea of releasing them as a cooked executable, would just be flythroughs basically.

[@asta5598]

CAN YOU MAKE A QUICK TUTORIAL?

[@VDVit_2013]

Not a stairwell. 9\10.

[@NightzRoadx]

yo frank im curious do you take A.D.D medication? like adderall or vyvanse

[@evilmrfrank]

No, why do you ask? :P
