Unreal Engine 4

In our search to streamline our animation process, we stumbled upon the gaming engine - Unreal Engine 4. While it's primary function is for gaming, it has the necessary tools for animation. The learning curve is steep, and the animation tools can be clunky, but the rendering time is incredible - not quite realtime, but close enough.

This is the first animation I created in Unreal. I also got the experience of rigging and driving the semi-truck as if I were playing a video game. The character animations come from mocap data we captured in our own studio.
