C&R Inc. (C&R Creative Studios), Japan's largest creative development studio, announced that its 3DCG production team "COYOTE" will host a free online seminar on July 15 (Wed) for effect designers. The seminar is titled "Master Unreal Engine 5 for Practical Use! Effect Step-Up Academy #ParticleNight". The game industry is currently undergoing a major transformation. With the advent of Unreal Engine 5, the demand for Unreal Engine (hereinafter referred to as UE) as the standard tool for next-generation game development is rapidly increasing. Major game companies are also accelerating their transition to UE, making UE skills essential for effect designers. However, many creators transitioning from Unity face challenges with UE's complex module system and conceptual differences, often getting stuck in the early stages of learning. It's common for creators to find themselves in a situation where they "understand the basics but can't use it at a practical level." This seminar addresses these real-world challenges and provides practical knowledge for those who have started learning UE to advance to the next step. The first half of the seminar will focus on common stumbling blocks encountered by those who have "recently started learning Unreal Engine" in game effect production, offering practical, on-site applicable knowledge with real examples. The latter half will briefly introduce challenges and considerations that arise when using UE in actual projects, sharing know-how for those who want to utilize UE at a professional level. It's a 90-minute session designed to help you move from "having touched UE" to confidently being able to "use UE!". We encourage anyone interested to join.
