RELIGHTING - UE 5.2 - Abandoned Apartment Environment
polycounter lvl 6
This is a relighting and upgrade project (from UE4 to UE5.2) I did lately to understand capabilities/usage of Nanite and Lumen. I was looking for a time to get into the new features of UE5 and create environments/cinematics or whatever I can do with it!
https://youtu.be/j7-cvQIsetcAbandoned Apartment project is already given from epic, you can find it on epic marketplace. (I did some slight changes to the level) All assets including foliage switched to nanite, all materials and textures needed to be edited in engine to get the best performance.
I used sequencer for camera animations, created master and sub-sequences. all the visuals exists as a sequence in engine as it is. Video is rendered via Movie Render Queu. All vignette, chromatic and color grading done in unreal engine. simply composited in After Effects. All sounds are from youtube's library.
It took me around 1 week total (1-2 hours of separate sessions each time) to understand the scene, capabilities of nanite and lumen, finding solutions for some issues after upgrading the project
Hope you like it!
Have an awesome day!
