Unreal Engine 5 | Generative Motion Graphics / VFX
Learn how to convert visual ideas into Blueprint code and optimize interactive art projects for performance with Unreal Engine. Perfect for creative coders, artists, and designers.
What you’ll learn
- Understand how to convert visual ideas into Blueprint code
- Learn key techniques to optimize your interactive art projects for performance
- Develop Blueprint programming techniques as an artist and/or designer
- Gain comfort in using Unreal Engine as an art and design tool
If you are a complete beginner I recommend watching some of my free course on my YouTube channel before taking this course as I skip over concepts that are for new users of Unreal Engine.
This course also is not a Motion Graphics course, where you learn how to keyframe and use the sequencer etc. It’s more about programming an animation and letting the computer generate motion graphics / VFX for you.
In this course, you will learn how to harness the power of Unreal Engine 5 to create a real-time fully procedural or generative FX motion graphics.
Along the way, you will pick up important tips and tricks that will help you in your future real-time motion design projects, interactive art installations etc.
Configuring a project for motion graphics or interactive art
Dynamic material and Blueprint interaction
Optimizing physics and graphics
Presentation/demo ready user interface
Turning Unreal Engine into a traditional offline renderer
As an artist or designer, it’s not easy to dive into programming and Unreal Engine can be quite overwhelming, especially as it is still heavily catered towards game development, ArchViz, virtual production etc. That’s why you need to develop comfort by practicing and training through a project based course like this. Then, eventually you will get the hang of how to turn your visual ideas into working Blueprint code.
Who this course is for:
- Creative coders who want to transition to Unreal Engine and learn about Blueprint syntax.
- Artists and designers who want to learn how to creative code using Unreal Engine.
