This scene is based on a modification of the week 5 scene. I focused on character animation, implemented a tracking shot, and instanced foliage with wind and rain effects.

I used an IK rig and retargeting tool to align the character bones and transfer the animation from the Mixamo character to the Paragon character.

For the rain effect, I utilized Ultra Dynamic Sky and Ultra Dynamic Weather.

I also used post process volume to add the lens flares, bloom, and vignette intensity.

For this project, I want to focus on world-building, creating a specific atmosphere, working on some materials, and incorporating a touch of VFX. I began by referencing an image I found on ArtStation.

I like the industrial vibe, the smoke and steam, the sands, and the play of light and shadow. Basically, I created my scene using different assets. However, I do pay attention to the smoke, the steam, and the snow.

After I finish building my scene, i use Ultradynamic sky to build my skylight, I use the sequencer to add animation and the Movie Render Queue to render the JPG files. Finally, I use Premiere to composite the final video.
