The Devils Gate - short film using Unreal Engine
Story: UN Commandos investigate the disappearance of lab personal on Proxima Centauri b.
The Devils Gate is a film I put together using Unreal Engine. There was no plan for this project, I just made it up as I went along.
It's basically a one person effort where I put together the story, character animation using iClone with Unreal Live Link, other animation done directly in Unreal, character creation using Character Creator, sound editing and music using Studio One, did some modeling in Blender (monorail, monorail station structure, lab building, office elevator, office TV, office conference table lamps) and video editing in HitFilm. Lots of assets came from either DAZ, Unreal or Reallusion content stores.
The results were little rough due to my lack of patience. Made it too long for one person, you lose interest after a while. Will make shorter videos next time.
There are no voice actors in this film. All the voices except one were done using Google WaveNet voices. The other I used Replica Studio.
I think this is great way to illustrate a story if you have the time, skills and patience.
