4.6/5 Instructor Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Michael Ricks has been making films and doing visual effects on indie films for over 15 years. When he discovered Unreal Engine 4, he was blown away by its realistic real-time rendering engine. He immediately saw that Unreal Engine (UE4) was a game-changer and that it had now become possible for a small studio consisting of a few artists to pull off a Hollywood-quality feature-length animated film.

Day-long rendering of each frame of animation has been a thing of the past with UE4. Join Michael as he takes you to a journey using this awesome toolset, that is not only fun but extremely satisfying on a creative level.

Haven't started it yet but seems like it will have everything I need to improve my understanding of unreal in some areas and begin to understand unreal in other areas.

I'm halfway through the second course and so far it has been great - from never having even opened Unreal I am now creating scenes and rendering out cinematics. My only critisism would be that it needs an update as some of the lesson steps don't match with the latest version of Unreal 4, and it can be frustrating having to work out where the comparative settings/controls are (this also goes for importing some of the FBX files from DAZ Studio). Having said that, it is still a very enjoyable!

I’m still working through the additional content but finding the tutorials easy and fun to follow. I really think that these videos will become great reference for me moving forward with unreal, being able to check back when needed. This helped me see the potential of a program that at first glance was daunting. Big thumbs up.
