Unreal Engine (MetaHuman Deep Dive)

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS AN ONLINE CLASS

MetaHuman is for artists looking for a fast, intuitive and astonishingly effective way to create realistic-looking characters for their projects.

Created by Epic Games (Unreal Engine), its user-friendly interface and advanced tools help artists get quick and great-looking results. An example of MetaHuman's expanding impact on the entertainment industry can be found in its quickly spreading use for animation, film production, television and videogames for pre-production and production itself.

Because MetaHumans can be created in minutes, you don't have to spend months developing characters. MetaHumans can be exported to DCCs like Maya, Blender and ZBrush for further customization for real-time use in Unreal Engine.

Some of the topics covered in this Deep Dive course:

- Basic to advanced instruction in the use of MetaHuman and techniques for assorted and varying types of projects
- A deep dive into the user interface and access/use of existing MetaHuman's library of characters to create your own characters
- Work on a project, exploring MetaHuman's more advanced capabilities for transforming and "remodeling" characters (faces, body types) for a unique look and feel
- Basic to advanced work with the MetaHuman Rig and how it works for animation as well as use with captured animation files
- Learn workflows that demonstrate how to make full clothing for a MetaHuman character and how to use more advanced techniques for clothing for costumes for MetaHuman characters using Marvelous Designer

Prerequisite: A basic knowledge of Unreal Engine and/or CG modeling programs such as Blender, Maya or ZBrush is highly recommended.
