Real-time 3D game character asset
Character model and skeleton asset created for and rendered in Unreal Engine 5. Artstation page and a making of process breakdown is available at the links.
Horror scene lighting
I took a ready made scene from the marketplace and removed all lighting from it. I then recreated lighting for the scene and added first person gameplay and audio effects aiming for a horror mood inspired by the Resident Evil video game series. The scene is rendered and lit in Unreal Engine 5 using dynamic lights and Lumen global illumination. Artstation page and video playthrough.
