UNREAL ENGINE 4-WEEK COURSE

Final Form Studios presents the Unreal Engine Filmmakers course. This 4-week crash course will give you the tools to confidently navigate yourself around Unreal Engine 5.

The goal for the end of this course is that students will be able to have an understanding of taking a storyboard and transforming it into a final rendered video.

This course will be taught online via zoom and the students will have preview materials before hand to study up on so that they are prepared for the lesson. If the student is not able to attend the class, not a problem. All classes will be recorded and available to watch anytime!

Your instructor for this course is Stephen Wilcox who has been using Unreal Engine for 6 years and is based in Tokyo, Japan. Coming from a background touring with EDM DJs and shooting high-energy Music videos and fashion films, he shifted his focus to Unreal virtual concerts. His main focus has been working on LED virtual production sets as an ICVFX Director. Recently he has been doing more and more previs, character, and level design for recent brands such as ANA Japan and YAMAHA. Excited to share his knowledge of film and Unreal, he is looking forward to seeing you in this class.
