Here's a sneak peak at what I've been working on with a couple of artists in UE5. Sorry for the bootlegged quality. 😅It's all work in progress ... More to come! (Sound on)

I dug up this oldie from 7 years ago. It was an animation test that got me into

's cinematics team. I'm think of polishing it and rendering it in UE5.

If anyone is interested in my workflow for the
@Guerrilla
test shot, I made a quick shot progression of the main stages. My workflow is layered mostly. I polish the main movement first and then work outwards. This shot took between 10-15hrs.

Here's a shot that didn't didn't fully make it in a short horror film called Voices in the Hollow. I didn't have reference of an animal struggling from an arrow wound so I had to improvise. I added a breakdown to my approach.

Great and quick way to prototype style, cameras and overall feel that combat designers can pull inspiration from! Looks awesome
@MunozArthur1
!
I really love to dive into Animation Mockups for games !
I can really focus in the animation style, playing with the camera intention and trying to give a nice Gamefeel to it.

Love the poses, composition and holds on this. Great work!
I want to work a lot more with this kind of impact frames in the future.
It's so interesting to play with that.
Do you know a good tool for drawing impact frames into your video edit ?

I only touch the controls that depend on the main motion later in the process. So for example, I would hide most geo and controls that are dependent on the COG. Once the cog, chest and hips are close to polish, I then work on limbs and tweak the controls accordingly.

I think for short projects, one can def animate in UE. I’d say it comes at a cost since the animator will def slow down. The tools aren’t entirely there yet unless a studio has a solid pipeline with a dedicated tools team.
I wouldn’t put an entire team on a long term project.

If you look up San Diego Sherrif, you can see that the patch is usually higher on the sleeve. His patch also looks loose as if it was sown on by hand.

Hey Yuriy! It wasn't an internal rig. It's a rig from a short movie I worked on called El Ningyo. This creature appears for a couple of seconds and isn't rigged for talking, so I had to get creative with the blendshapes.

I can easily see AI learning stylized animation. Then taking this footage, cutting frames, adding overshoots, moving holds and everything the 12 principles have to offer. It would be very damn close. Artists would then clean up the frames and paint over.

Glad you find it helpful!
The benefit of layered is that it’s super fast so it’s easy to try and throw away ideas.
If leads want to see it in stepped I just slap the anim on an override layer and key the main poses.
