FLY THROUGH From Animation to Final Render

Behind the scenes of the CG FPV drone shot cinematic:
Maya playblast animation, Unreal Engine's "detail lighting" with Lumen, and final render with post effects in DaVinci/AfterEffects.

[@Phillefx]

Do you export your unreal scenes to maya? How would I go about that, looks pretty smooth in the maya viewport

[@yizhao3732]

USD export

[@MasteringCinematics]

I don't export the whole scene, just the essential geo to help me animate in Maya. If you have Nanite activated, it'll automatically export a low proxy version of it.

@@MasteringCinematics thank you very much

@@yizhao3732 I'd rather avoid using usd with unreal as it is very prone to crashing at least the last time I used it with Houdini and ue 5.4
