Live actor inside Unreal 5 . . .
Here’s a cell phone video (sorry, quality sucks!) of me using my webcam to see if the green screen compositing is working. Although I was getting camera feed inside the 3D scene, I kept getting errors that the webcam was not being recognized by Unreal 5. This was a scene I converted from 4.27. It […]

iPad Virtual Camera in Unreal 4
Below is a pic of me using my iPad as a Virtual Camera so I can move around the scene. Next, I will learn how to use the Take feature so I can record that movement. I’m also using a web cam live inside Unreal, but I’m not quite there yet. There’s a new Media […]

PREVIEW is done!!!
Took long enough, I know. It is below and on home page. QR Codes: I sold a few P.I.Y.™ Canvas at the Festival of Books and ran into a problem with the first purchase on ApplePay not going through. Customer bought 2 canvas and paid cash, thank goodness. I had not assigned a “Ship Free” […]

iClone 7 to Live Link . . .
Success! Finally got everything to sync up beautifully. The Unreal output is the best! I did import a few FBX meshes, but not all of them worked. I also purchased $13 worth of other stuff on sale at Unreal. This is just a test. . . . ds 2402

Cartoon filter HELL . . . NAS . . . PLEX . . . Dummy Camera Box . . .
iClone 7 PENCIL FILTER . . . As I continue re-rendering my movie in High resolution instead of Preview, I thought I would try the “Cartoon filter” in iClone. That was a mistake as I rendered at 1 frame per second. I uploaded those files to Ka-Blam after assembling them into a 24 page comic […]

Wrapping up Part 3 . . .
First of all, “The Bell Dimension Deux” comic is on hold as I finish up with the final part of the movie Preview. Now that it has been completed in a rough form, I’m going through and rendering in iClone’s High Render settings at 4096. Iray rendering is out of the question since it would […]

The Bell Dimension Deux Comic Book is out!
The picture in the previous post was my first attempt at turning my iClone movie into a comic book. Although I was happy with the color print, I was extremely disappointed with the grayscale version as there were too many dark images that made the publication useless. However, I had used different looking characters, this […]

The Bell Dimension Deux Preview is here!
It’s about 5 mins with credits. These characters are inducted into a “training program” that will condition them to become something completely different. Of course, it is a flawed approach, to say the least. To see the latest Preview, go to Vimeo through the TBD menu, or go to YouTube and search for “The Bell […]

iClone 7 to Unreal Engine 4 . . .
I have finally achieved what I was trying to do with Unreal Engine 4. It took a little while to get use to how this game engine works. Through many trials and errors, I have finally rendered out a low end scene of Minister Bes standing near the outside thrown chair. The shadows, trees, and […]
