man i havent watched you for years and you are as good as i remamber. you teached me so much on my way to become a pro editor. thank you for everything!!
Your energy, personality and sense of humor (all perfectly synched) make you the best teacher out there, IMHO.
So Useful in a compact way,
and thanks for sharing.
Very fast and clear, boom!!! nice work...
This was great! Looking forward to more of this kind of content.
That seems surprisingly straight forward! Great video
Nice work man, more tuts about virtual production and UE, Thanks
Omg i was looking for this last week. thanks for this very helpful !
Thanks for the code ^^ Just got the course to try out some virtual production for my DnD podcast :)
Happy Friday. ♥️
This is so cool.
Unreal Engine is a wonderful tool!
Love it! Nice tutorial!
Very useful tutorial about Virtual Production in Unreal Engine 5
very creative Man, waiting for more videos 😍
Got a timecode generator for last Christmas. And are happy now.😅😅
great video!
Very nice! How long does it take to set this up as someone new to VP (but not to 3D Programms)? including all the syncing
one of the best channel for UE ever
Hello, is there a UE5 cheat sheet for camera Film Back settings to achieve the many different aspect ratios? For example, what would the film back settings be for 2.35,or 2.39.1? Figuring out the film back settings is challenging.
if you run a second pc with touch designer you can stream a keyed comp via sdi to an additional monitor for reference
Nice content. So anyways, what if we use a led screen instead of the green screen and have the depth and tracks in realtime checked ?
I appreciate this approach, but I don't think it looks good enough to justify the cost of the Mars, or even the Vive tbh. 3D tracking in software when compositing is using software you probably already have and MANY are getting excellent results. Even UE live apps offer good tracking data with integrated stabilization.. I think people get caught up in the novelty of doing it with realtime trackers, but if you're already doing the post production offline, it makes no sense to spend all that money on real time trackers imho. I only mention this because many beginners see a video like this and give up because they dont have an extra $6K for the mars or similar.
Do you mean you would just film yourself on a green screen, get the 3d tracking data from a program like Nuke/ After Effects / Mocha, then put that tracking info into unreal engine , export the scene and composite in nuke/after effects/premiere pro? Would you be willing to make a video with the steps on how to do that?
@@SitinprettyProductions yes, fairly accurate description. Try the Jaro Atry youtube channel. He runs a similar workflow. I just think we get caught up in new tech we often are blind to the results. Plus the vive mars movement is never as smooth as I’d like.
You'r wrong.
Mars is a bad system but that's no the biggest issue here.
You will need to match the distorsion of your real lens with your virtual camera.
Also, the world pose.
Without previz you will not know if your shot is working before weeks or even month depending on your budget/team.
Also, no compositing help because with preiz you can tweak lights on set to match your virtual scene.
3D tracking is way more complex than what you think, and takes heellllll of a time.
It's no where near using AE, you should use software like Syntheyes or 3DE.
Its really HARD and LONG to 3D track so if you were to shoot stuff that last for let's say one hour, this is becoming impossible or extremely high in price.
@@ViensVite yeah, except no. Lol
@@demonhogo ok bro send me handled shots with vive system without jitters please i'd love to see that
I miss you guys! 💯
Thank for the great video! I have a question about the timecode though. Where doed the timecode in unreal came from? From the camera through SDI or you connect another deity somehow into the pc?
so cool guys! 😁
Hello. I've been wanting to try some of this stuff out. The one thing I really can't figure out is how to export the tracked camera data as an fbx for use in other 3d software. I can only get it to export the first frame of it.
Amazing
What are the benefits of tracking the camera through the cine camera actor with a blank actor over using VCam?
Curious on how to blend my 3d motion skill set into virtual production. I usually working c4d / redshift / After effects.
That is very informative and interesting. I need to play with this 😅😂😂
Grateful for the tut. I notice that the subject is floating at @10:25. How can this be prevented?
Wow! But what if I want to feed an realtime 3d element like a stromcloud or ice-crystal to real tv studio image, with tracked cameras. What is the most professional way to key out the background of that UE video feed?
curious if you've ever used nuke for chroma keying?
So simple! 🤪
Great video guys, really well explained for all the steps :)
Altough I have a question, how did you managed to create the shadow around 10:29?
Thank you :)
That's done with After Effects. There's a great plugin from Red Giant that does this in 1 click. With Aximmetry you can also get really good shadows in real time. I'm still figuring those things out, so maybe I'll do a tutorial about it in the future.
@@CinecomCrew thank you for your answer, do you think we can manage to make the shadow directly on the virtual production?
@@ivanbruno6527 you can by creating a material in ue that keys real time and gets a video feed from your cam via live link. then you make a plane in ue, set it to have that material and make sure its parented to the camera correctly and you will have essentially a keyed card of your actor in engine
Bravo.good marketing. Can You show Joe trackera jittering while not moving?
Did you create the shadow in unreal engine or after effects I find it very hard to create shadows within unreal engine. When it comes to green screen.
Is it possible to teach about adding the shadow
Please more tutorial on this topic
Nice
Want more of these virtual production tutorials bro .
Please make a full series of this from scratch starting to video output and editing and adding VFX or any other required VFX shot or any object these kind which is after the shot is done in virtual production stage
Then how do we add or change the baground or anything we required after all these camera recording done .
Is there any ways to do it
Buy his course
How do you export video file from unreal with the timecode embedded?
We get TC to camera, MARS, and we see it in unreal engine, but when we try to render and export it doesn’t have the timecode 😬
i have the same problem , did you find the solution?
We started exporting in Pro Res and it works!@@HeadHunterMax
Hello, I'm deeply diving into this right now (on the verge of buying stuff). I'm looking to do this but real time/live. How easy is the camera tracking for the composited feed? I can settle for fixed camera, but wanted to add realtime movement for add a lil umph to the production.
Check out the Deity TC-1 & TC-SL1 over at cinecom.info/DeityTimecode and never worry about syncing files again 🎉
Bro i liked
Last year we got the same Deity TC-1 generators and for some reason Mars won't sync to any of them. The TC in the Mars goes faster than realtime and in a few seconds its completely out of sync.
@@HectorCenteno The MARS needs to be set at the right FPS. We had the same issue, until we found out it was set at 60FPS and the deity at 30 🙂
Whats all the equipment i need?
How do we export the video file from unreal with the timecode embedded so we can sync in post?
We have TC on camera, mars and see it in unreal, but when we export, we can’t get the timecode embedded 😢
Hi. Please can anyone guide who to setup virtual setup production
Hello Jordy i'm from Cambodia
Hey man please upload 2nd part of unreal engine on skill share
It is also possible to track from a real flashlight to an unreal one.
Please make a video how to do virtual production with out br or vieve only with phone please if it is possible
@ 1:02: Ah! It's Cal Jordy from the award-winning video game Cinecom Jedi: Fallen Order
Wozers this one went way over my head lol 😂
So...what I attach the vive to the camera in Unreal, the Unreal camera jumps to a 0,0 position under everything and I cannot move it. Do I need to do something before that?
Make it a child of an Actor and move it like how he does in the video. 7:20
Sooooo hard. My head pops.
Your video is always COOL
USd 9000 for the mars and 1 rover!
As i said everywhere i could, MARS isn't IMO a good product atm.
I say this not because i have a personnal problem neither with valve or cinecom.
I love you guys.
But...
You will notice jitter if you do handled shots.
On your example, we can notice sliding feet even if your on a tripod.
I recommand using at least a bliss tracker / antilatency system if you don't have 50k + budget for vicon or optitrack solutions. (wich is basically true pose so it works 100% and you need to calibrate only once).
Theyr both under 10k solutions. I personnaly use Bliss wich is a T265 tracker uppgraded cost around 3k.
Mars system is honestly bad (in my opinion) because of the design itself, using vive trackers that are known to produce jitter + issues with occlusion + issues with light is a really a terrible design choice.
Still love your work and what you'r doing to push VFX so keep going
The whole point of VP is to get the real composite from UE or any other dedicated software for VP. You missed the Keying step in UE, which is the most important one, when you see in real time the final result. And you need a capture card like Blackmagic decklink pro to get the camera feed in Unreal and many other steps. So basically this video doesn't show you how to do VP.
yeah the price of the mars is way out of reach, please a can you do the same for just having a vive head set 4 base stations and a puck
How to combine animations in Unreal Engine 5?
you can do a low budget tutorial for this with ipad for example something simple
get rid of your ipad and get something that doesnt screw over people, like apple loves to do. UE has ways to make stuff for phones so i guess you can do some AR. but like you can do a lot with a phone camera and a greenscrean, wich can be just green cloth draped over something.. if you can do that then you can easely just add a background in UE
Please how can one get the unreal engine software?any help pls🤲
Unreal Engine is free, just download it from Epic Games
This stuff is insanely expensive. Starting at 5000$ for just Vive stuff. Is there a way to rent this instead?
Why are you recording at 30fps? Is there an option for 24fps?
You can definitely record at 24fps. We just shoot at 30fps for our UA-cam videos as they include a lot of screencasts.
Why would put the second tracker to the floor? I don't get it. Please someone explain it to me?
so you know were the floor is
please simplify process
Hi bro how are you ☺️
The Vive Mars pack is almost $10,000.
Still one of the cheapest solutions :-) You can also use an iPhone and the free app 'VCAM' for camera tracking. Although it's far from accurate, you can get away with it for medium shots.
I thought I'll learn something new but all I saw was ad ad buy that product 😂
Hi
why video is blurry
This is the Ultimate Beginners Guide to Virtual Production in Unreal Engine 5.
Step 1: Spend $999,999,999,999,999.99
its about time we can use phones and the built in gyro for virtual production. Nerds, get on it!!!
Check out some of our latest Unreal Engine videos, we used our phone's gyro as a camera.
Hi bro I need mobile editing app ling send mi bro
even tho the tutorials have gotten more complicated over the years with the inclusion of more 3D tools they skim over the top of things no less fast, and no less equipment specific an dependent.
fast-forward 5 days...
Hiii sir how aer you
👏👏👏👏👏
I know budget friend and “beginner” is somewhat relative but the packages you are recommending are neither in my opinion. You need at least a $5,000 PC, the Mars System is another $5,000, the time code slate is over $2,000, the time code boxed are another $500, and then theirs the large enough studio space. So funny what UA-camrs think is “budget friendly” when they get stuff sent to them for free. Good video though.
13k is buget friendly to a single camera that can cost 25k, without any lenses. im poor myself so no way i can get into this , i have a decent computer though and im learning vfx in unreal. its a start. maybe i will make something that impresses people and they will wanna donate or invest. got to start somewere
Wobbling and Jittering. Yea It's working...
I'll wait until they figure out how to make it easier to setup. Seems easier to create an environment, record green screen footage and then send camera tracking data into Unreal. Render background and then slap it into AE with your green screen footage. At least until they make Unreal more about creativity and less developer tool.
I love your videos and the energy you have, but to call this video "beginner" is misleading. Who has all the gear you have? Still, there is a lot of great information in the video. Still subbed!
This gaming channel never dreamed about this to defeat "I laugh at your face competition with every word I can" so that's why and simple users never dreamed about technology generating green screen with AI. Other things are just part of methodology for advertising agency, but no 3D graphics tho. Make this thing only thing about that movie in that record 5:08, because you never had them and it's part of methodology.
VIVE Mars = $9,000. Is there a budget solution?
Oof steamvr plugin is deprecated my dude use openxr and yes you can record audio in unreal
Couldn't you do it all with an iPhone mounted on your camera?😉
20000€ for all?
Blows my mind... how many trifles U need to connect adjust keep in mind and they can conflict with each other :) I can say its way too complicated if U had to use even your head as a finger ^). And yet (Thnks Gods of Cinema) it is possible to carry out.
Lost me with the VR lol for simpletons you can use an iPhone as a controller to control the virtual camera in
Unreal engine.
Lots of gadgets 🙂 I m not rich as much as like you.. There is a AI tool which can do same thing without any green screen
Which ai tool, please
eigth

BRO 5k is not for a one person trying to learn this 5K!!! omg if you make a new video about this try and make one for people who have Android and IOS
That's an AD video lol
Ah yes, the absolute beginners guide for absolute beginners who happen to have a large studio greenscreen and RED cameras (not to mention the $1000 clapper). No offense but this whole method seems fairly redundant and downright tedious to work with. Isn't the point of virtual production to be more... virtual?
well its more hardewere so you have to do less at the computer, like instead of making custom animations for hours or days using cgi, you can have an actor (or yourself) make the movements in 10 minuts
Is working Hey. Ha ha ha. Micro moving camera na It's working. Ha ha. Toys for profesionals. I AM realy scare to spend money for this sh.... It's still same Vive trackers
what the shit.... if you're going to do an offline version of this, it would have been MUCH more straightforward to just do a CAMERA TRACK after you shoot! if you're not gonna do the "live" version, all this effort is waste.
Yes just by $20K in gear and you can do this....why don't you do it with cheap gear instead of grifting?
Beginner guide…, ffs 😂
Ikr 😂
so pointless if you know AE
beginners ???? REALLY ???
Wtf all that work and looks amateur
