In this video we create a cinematic driven from data captured by take recorder during a gameplay session. We explore topics like the camera crane, motion blur and extracting take recorder data to a proxy blueprint actor for ease of use.

damn... I get it now... I have never understood why you are meant to use a crane rig in 3D software... because the camera can just go and be anywhere... But putting those real world/physical limits on the camera gives it that realistic feel, not to mention very smooth movements... Thanks for another fantasti tutorial!!!

You can sorta avoid the rig and just animate rotation but the rig has another amazing benefit, pre production When you use the rig you can tell teams on a real shoot how far the crane needs to be or angles etc, check out this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/icp6bLqYqtu1ZJ8.htmlsi=0gcRSEG6cgdyVdED

@@Rforge AH!!! That’s even smarter!!! I’ve never even thought about that… usually my thought is about how to take reality and pipe it into digital… but using digital to tell reality how to function is GENIUS!!! So cool, thank you for sharing!!!

Nice tut, for the next video, a tutorial for best rendersettings including console variables would be great

Hi ! These actually change depending on what's being rendered. In our case the motion blur was the only thing needed But I will say movie render cue with anti aliasing turned off and samples 2/8 is a great place to start with lumen

This video was packed with lot of cool tricks and knowledge, with such a good practical example. Thanks... Just one question this Take Recorder works on third person character or any ingame mode actor, right? Then, this would so useful for creating quick simple Previs

Thank you for the feedback glad you liked the video ! Yeah it works on anything with live input even a phone that is driving a camera in virtual production (for example)

How do I record a SpaceMouse dronelike movement?

Why when I press render (local) the camera activation is the one that comes from the drivable pawn? but in she sequencer everything looks at it should?

@Rforge 12 күн бұрын

Hi so I mention in the video about the camera cuts track have you bound the right camera during render ?

@@Rforge yes but still get the same result. I use a different Pawn, though.
