  • Introduction2:55

    Hey Guys! Ressources are currently being uploaded. They will appear in the next lecture today.

  • Art Direct our Environment9:09

    Prepare references and plan an attic-focused blockout, then model a V-shaped attic, walls, windows, and a skylight in Blender for later integration into Unreal Engine 5 with baked lighting.

  • Blockout and Creating the Floor Planks38:59
  • Creating the Wall Planks14:37

    Model wall planks, bevel edges, mark seams, and unwrap UVs. Use a nine-plank array with randomized rotation and apply old pillar wood texture; plan pillars and tinting in Substance Painter.

  • Creating the Pillars1:03:08
  • Creating the Window42:02
  • UVs and Preparing for Substance 3D Painter17:16
  • Add more Pillars12:02

    Add wooden planks to the wall by creating planes, snapping vertices, applying a mirror modifier, and UV unwrap with bevels, then export an FBX for attic texturing.

  • Bake Mesh Maps and Texture Floor24:31
  • Texturing the Pillars and Window37:01
  • Texturing the Bricks22:39
  • Prepare Environment for Unreal Engine 526:56

    Export textures from Substance Painter (color, roughness, normal) at 8-bit 4k; export the attic as FBX from Blender for Unreal Engine 5, applying base color, roughness, and normal maps.

  • Import into Unreal Engine 544:27

    Import into Unreal Engine 5 for cinematic game environment creation, guided by a masterclass approach in this course.

  • Bake the Lights58:56

    Bake the lights in Unreal Engine 5.7 to master lighting workflows for cinematic game environments, delivering realistic, optimized lighting within the cinematic game environment masterclass.

  • Modeling a Basketball13:47
  • Texturing the Basketball25:01
  • Modeling an Acoustic Guitar41:50
  • Modeling an Acoustic Guitar 239:01

    Model a low-poly acoustic guitar in Blender, shaping reference planes, adding screws and string hardware, beveling edges, and unwrap UVs for export to Unreal Engine 5.7.

  • Unwrap UVs and create Material Slots for the Guitar54:53
  • Texturing the Acoustic Guitar55:19

    Texturing the acoustic guitar for a cinematic game environment in Unreal Engine 5.7, exploring material setup, textures, and shading to enhance realism.

  • Modeling the Tricycle31:28
  • Modeling the Tricycle 217:04

    Model the tricycle wheel in Blender by creating a circle, extruding, beveling, mirroring, and fine-tuning edge loops, centers, and subdivision for a polished, cinematic look.

  • Modeling the Tricycle 350:19
  • Modeling the Tricycle 440:40
  • Prepare UVs for the Tricycle44:37

    Learn to prepare UVs for a tricycle within a cinematic game environment using Unreal Engine 5.7.

  • Texturing the Tricycle55:54

    Engage in texturing the tricycle to support a cinematic game environment in unreal engine 5.7.

  • Lighting our Final Scene with Lumen1:02:17
  • Lighting with Desk and Floor Lamps12:48

    Eliminate shadow glitches by tuning ray tracing normal bias, then light the scene with desk and floor lamps, adjusting attenuation, source radii, soft source radius, and emissive lighting for realism.

Requirements

  • You should have basic knowledge in Blender

Description

Want to create stunning, AAA-quality game assets and cinematic environments from scratch?

In this complete production pipeline course, you’ll master the exact workflow used by professional game artists.

We start to set up an Attic Environment in Blender and import it into Unreal Engine 5 and use the GPU Lightmass Plugin for professional baked lighting.

We proceed in Blender 5.0, where you’ll model highly detailed hard-surface assets: a realistic basketball, a beautiful acoustic guitar, and a fully functional tricycle.

You’ll learn professional UV unwrapping techniques, then move into Substance 3D Painter to create production-ready textures that look incredible in real-time.

Then we bring all Assets into Unreal Engine 5.7.

Then, we push it further with Unreal’s powerful Lumen real-time global illumination and Nanite meshes for next-gen performance.

You’ll build a breathtaking AAA cinematic interior environment, complete with dramatic lighting, volumetric fog, and rich atmosphere.

Plus, you’ll discover professional tricks for lighting night scenes using practical lights — light bulbs, desk lamps, floor lamps — and all the technical details behind hard surface modeling, optimization, performance, and lighting workflows.

Whether you’re an aspiring 3D artist, game developer, or environment artist, this course gives you the complete, industry-relevant skill set to create jaw-dropping visuals.

From modeling to texturing, lighting to cinematic presentation — this is your one-stop production pipeline.

Enroll now and start creating like a pro.
