"creating the landscape" Proceeds to place and scale a bunch of static meshes "Easy fog" OH MY GOD IM WET HOW DID YOU DO IT SIR

[@scriptor2029]

thank you for this video, the music video was so good I watched it over and over. I am so happy to see how someone create such masterpiece.

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thank you! Means a lot

[@AlexKongMX]

Holy frick man!!! That is an insane amount of talent exuding from the screen, so inspiring Luis, congrats and thank you!

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thanks man! Much more coming soon 👍

[@NestGFX_]

Breath taking atmosphere

[@MasteringCinematics]

👍!

[@hamidrezakhosravimusic]

Wow Amazingly done Thanks for sharing. Quite motivating

[@SanjeevKumar-be4dd]

This amazing broo.....u are really talented in evno creation....I'm going to use this in my workflow

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thanks a lot! Stay tuned for more..

[@tobiaskeast6866]

Aggressively talented

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thanks man 👍

This is amazing!

[@jonathanmayermusic]

Incredible! this is a masterpiece man!

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thank you!

😁

[@lauroterica]

Incredible work 😮

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thank you, Incredible music! 👍

[@ManifestTheMusic]

Love the video. I’ll be making sure I stayed tuned for more😊❤

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thanks!

[@aliamirian15]

perfect

[@dima.osiris]

I looked at other works and it's just amazing! Is there a chance that you will someday start making tutorials?

[@MasteringCinematics]

thanks! I'll be doing more like talk sessions of me explaining every part of production. but let me know what you would like me to talk about

[@dima.osiris]

@@MasteringCinematics Thanks for your reply sir. Camera animation and sequencer work, character animation and lighting work - this would be incredibly useful and cool! If you have the time and opportunity, I am sure that I will not only be happy with your lessons.

[@ashenrashmitha]

Woww amazing, do tutorials, you have nice talent♥️

[@MasteringCinematics]

which aspects of this project are you particularly interested in for a tutorial?

[@isancreates1258]

OMG! incredible, actually making a scene just like this one. Where did you take those mountains from ? Insane work , amazing.

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thanks! I got the mountains from a pack by Papaya Digital on the Marketplace

[@Nj86743]

awesome stuff man!

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thank you!

[@galinmonev]

Great breakdown video. I’d like to have a longer video on each part like rendering several passes and combining them in davinci😊

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thank you! In this project I didn't render separate passes from Unreal, just one Raw EXR and color graded it in Davinci. In some shots though I did some post Fx inside After Effects. I will be doing more in depth explanations on everything soon.

[@maxmmh]

super cool! if you bake the camera in maya, how do you know where tree branches are?

[@MasteringCinematics]

Great question! Once the overall environment was done, I exported the trees that were going to be in the camera's path. Brought those into maya and did the animation there. I wish I could've done all that in Unreal, but I'm much faster animating in Maya.

[@ritecist596]

Motivating . I think you should start making tuitorils on this video. They are topnotch man.

[@MasteringCinematics]

thanks!, Let me know what you're curious about, and I'll talk about that in upcoming videos

[@maxhammer5737]

looks awesome! what are you export settings in engine?

[@MasteringCinematics]

thanks! Nothing Fancy: 4K EXR Default Anti-aliasing settings Color Aoutput: - OCIO Configuration Enabled - Configuration source OCIO_ACES - Tone Curve Disabled But the post color grading I think is what makes the images pop more.

[@LuanNguyen-ms4qe]

I really like the job of creating worlds in a 3D environment. Can you share with me the computer configuration so you can use this job? I find it so fast and smooth.

[@OficialMag]

Did you do all the creation and animation? Could you talk a little about what you used? Are you using metahuman? I would easily buy one of your courses.

[@MasteringCinematics]

Thank you! Yeah I used megascan assets for the environment, I modeled the girl and converted it into a metahuman (video coming soon). The Cyborg head scan was provided by the band. And the animation was mostly MoCap utilizing Move.Ai I'll be posting all of that in upcoming videos.

[@TheArtofme]

Did you convert landscape asset pack to static mesh fbx?

[@MasteringCinematics]

Hey! Not really, I just dragged and dropped them into my level. They are not super heavy, you shouldn't have a problem, unless the files got corrupted when you downloaded them, or there's a compatibility issue. I believe they come as Nanite already.

[@danelokikischdesign]

[@timnim1320]

can you make a detailed tutorial or step by step guide please?

[@MasteringCinematics]

Eventually I'll give a more in depth explanation on how everything was made

[@timnim1320]

[@itscoldcoldwinter]

wher can i learn this

[@MasteringCinematics]

Check out Unreal Sensei, he's got a free 3 hour intro tutorial
