I was pretty excited to start this assignment, as I enjoyed 3D modelling and wanted to practice and improve my modelling and texturing skills. I really liked the tavern wedding theme idea and so I moved to that group from the group I’d initially begun with. Learning Unreal Engine and how everything works inside its engine was intimidating initially, but I enjoyed learning how to use it. I’ve learnt a lot about the pipeline incorporating Unreal Engine and environment building and I know I’d be able to do it more efficiently next time.

Creating the cinematic was very daunting to me as I’ve never done anything like it, and have no experience with cameras or cinematic theory. In the future, I’d like to be able to test out more features with the camera in Unreal as I didn’t have a lot of time to play with post-process effects due to being behind on work.

Overall I enjoyed working with my group, as they were all communicative and active online, so it was easy to reach out to talk about concepts, art styles, and get advice or help if you were stuck on something.
