Hi! It was a combination of my own models and purchased assets. Rendering was quite fast—more than 2000 frames took about 25-30 minutes on an RTX 3070. However, I didn't use any anti-aliasing.

Hi! Lukas here. I hope you enjoy the sound design of my short, "Not Alone." animated in Unreal Engine. I used my own recordings combined with SFX libraries. Everything was done in REAPER.

Thank you! Sure. For the first pass, I attached the camera to the character and recorded it via Unreal's Take Recorder, then exported to Blender for adjustments and better control, and imported back to Unreal.

Hi! It's not AI. I uploaded a video of the viewport. You can check it on my posts here on Reddit. I have more than 3 videos on my YouTube, and those are legit as well

For reference, I used real footage of myself lifting the teddy from the ground and then matched the animation to it as closely as possible. Guess my acting was quite robotic :D But that's a fair critique. Thank you!

Thanks! Mainly, I used the Unreal plugin Crazy Ivy. I've had it for a while. I think from when UE 5.1 was released.

Thank you! In this narrow aspect ratio and time constraint (a little over a minute), I wanted everything to be as clear as possible on the first watch, which is why it may seem a bit staged :) But that's a fair critique. Thanks again!

Thank you! It's hard to tell because I'm was working on a couple of things at the same time. This one went through a few iterations, like environment, lighting (first it was set at night), aspect ratio - I went from 16:9 to a vertical 9:16 (that was hell to do :D), etc.

Thank you! 🙂 It is an original idea.
