I used the amazing relighting tools on Switch Light to help make a film lit entirely in Unreal Engine 5. This is next level virtual production. Imagine making films entirely in Unreal Engine where all of your lighting is done in the engine. Switch light is currently in beta and will be released in the very near future. You can test it at:

@JoshuaMKerr I think it's also a lack of subsurface scattering. Light doesn't just bounce off of our skin, it travels through it and scatters throughout the inside.

@ico-theredstonesurgeon4380 10 ай бұрын

That tells so much about realism. The final result does look plastic almost like it's a video game character, but that doesnt make sense because that's an actual person being recorded. Maybe the key to realism is afterall a good roughness map

@dabbopabblo 10 ай бұрын

for making a rougness map use materialize, it allows for batch processing too, and the only reason the skin looks plasticy is because skin in real life absorbs light, so whatever you are applying the video material too, you should use a mask to make the skin part a subsurface scattering material and then with the roughness map the lighting will look photorealistic

Could you make a tutorial on how you got the image onto unreal to actually be able to edit it?

The green channel of the normal map is flipped, how can I flip it inside unreal?

How clean and free from artifacts are the mask edges with moving actors against green screen?

Its impressive but not perfect. I still key in AE or Davinci

Davinci Resolve Studio actual has a similar feature they just added. It allows for relighting within your grading workflow and can output normal maps for videos.

Have you seen the relative quality of resolves surface map?

@@JoshuaMKerr resolve is grading whole scene after the fact, but relighting in UE relights the whole scene during the fact. although the word to describe seems to be really close, those corrections and changes make very different dimensions for the storytelling. while the resolve surface/relighting improves the visual narrative, relighting w unreal (allows to) creates another 'visual' narrative.
