Epic's new Project Avalanche looks like the closest thing to recreating what I loved about Flash: Real-time 2D/3D/vector graphics with a powerful timeline, blend modes, motion tools and more. Avalanche is already being used in TV broadcasts, and I could see this bringing a big boost to Unreal Engine in the experiential installation space, especially for content- and UI-focused experiences. Very excited to try this out, hopefully with UE 5.4. https://lnkd.in/g_QB-YGY

Did you know that your broadcast graphics workflow does not have to define which rendering technology to use?

I am very excited to explore the fascinating world of Project Avalanche after watching the captivating Jonathan Winbush video! This innovative project is bound to have a significant impact. The impressive real-time graphic control, powered by Unreal, is undeniably a game changer. It combines the best features of AE and Cinema 4D, but takes it to a whole new level with its cutting-edge real-time graphics capabilities. I am eagerly anticipating the release of Project Avalanche, as I can't wait to experience it firsthand. Although the idea of Unreal adopting a subscription model for non-gaming projects may be a bit unsettling, I understand that it's all part of the ever-evolving nature of the business world. Have you had the chance to learn about Project Avalanche? I would love to hear your thoughts and discuss this exciting project further! #ProjectAvalanche #RealTimeGraphics #UnrealEngine #GameChanger #TechNews

Sooo… what can I say about using Unreal Engine 5.4.1 as a on screen tool? First off, the creative capabilities it gives you are completely incredible! Our wipes and stingers are built with neon strips to light up the scene that interact with all the 3D text, so we got really nice reflections on our chrome text. All the lights and text were connected to remote control, so the graphics operator, in this case me, had control over the color and the 3D text wipes and stingers. Some things that gave us some issues: - Some weird flashes on some levels when triggered - Auto-size box assigned to text doesn't show up when brought in live - If you want wipes to go over straps, everything needs to be pushed forward in z-space. This isn't a bug, just something to remember. On the plus side, though, Unreal only crashed 6 times 😅 and I'm happy with where we are, just need to do some more testing. #3DAnimation #MotionGraphics #VFX #UnrealEngine #CreativeTools #GraphicsDesign #LiveVisuals #EventProduction #TechnicalIssues #BugFixing #CreativeProcess #Perseverance #GraphicsOperator #RemoteControl #Testing

Want to elevate your engineering business? Here's one tool every creator should try: Unreal Engine It's used in the gaming, film, television, architectural, automotive, broadcast, and other industries. That's why they're an Engineering honoree for Contra’s 2024 Creator Tools Awards!

With Project Avalanche and Niagara fluids, Unreal Engine is all set to disrupt the motion design industry. Combining the layer based workflow of Adobe After effects, the cloner systems like that of Cinema 4D and real-time fluid simulations this can become a game changer. Can't wait to test this out :-) #motiondesign #unrealengine

Having some immersive fun with a demo Particle System I've built for visionOS. Written in SwiftUI, great to see how far we can potentially push the custom graphics rendering in realtime 📱 💫 🌌 🚀 #swiftui #visionos
