What’s up animators, my name is Cliff, I am a 3D animator and this is Round Table Animation
We also post our own cinematic animations on this channel and if you are interested in creating your own animations like this, we offer tools, tricks, tips and resources to get you started.

You can pose a lot quicker and with cleaner curves if you switch to local space.
It is next to your Translate, Rotate, and Scale indicators (the little globe)
I just saw the RWBY fight flash by in the intro, googled "RWBY Unreal Engine" and found the video. Watched it, loved it, and only then realised you were the same person who made it!! Well done x)
I'll use what I learned here to make some kick-ass fights myself. Tysm!
Bro, this tutorial is amazing. It is exactly what I was looking for. I just learned how to navigate myself through unreal engine and excited to start learning some animations. Thank you so much T_T
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for the tutorial! Also, Leartes Assets are amazing.
In the viewport you can click the Show->Sprites->Hide All to hide the sprites without affecting the Control Rig controls unlike the game view. For the camera, a quicker way to focus the camera on the actor is to use the eyedropper tool and manually adjust from there. When adjusting the fingers you should switch from world to local coordinate space, shortcut is Ctrl+` (backtick). Also, if you want a clear view without the controls in the way, shortcut T to toggle the controls. If you click on something else, like a background object while the controls are hidden, you need to undo, Ctrl+Z to get back the selected control so you can toggle the controls with T again. There's no other way to get them back as far as I know. Another thing not mentioned in the video is under global_ctrl you can toggle fk/ik switches (there's currently a bug in 5.3.2 that unfortunately breaks the fk/ik mapping, hopefully that'll get fixed soon).
Thanks so much for the info! I added your tips in the start in the next video and I found out how to toggle back on the controls if you click off!
dude this is one of the best tutorials out there. Showing us your workflow and letting us experiment with our own styles. Love it, More unreal please haha. Would defo buy a course if you put one out
I appreciate that, more Unreal engine tutorials incoming!
Thank you for this! Awesome to see the workflow live.
Is it possible to save this sequence as an animation blueprint? To be interchangeable with other characters and anime montages
This was really helpful thank you
No problem!
I think at some point every 3d or game engine software will have a built-in tool similar to Cascadeur to speed up skeletal animation
I can see that happening!
I'm surprised Epic games hasn't already absorbed Cascadeur already haha
great info!
Glad it was helpful!
I am waiting for a tutorial like this for a really long time, very nice to meet you, bro
Of course! Anytime!!
same
Just got the asset pack the 70% helped ALOT
UV70 didn't work for me only RTA30 how I get UV70 to work?
@@TheFallenKages i put a code from a different bundle and it worked
@@TheFallenKagesuse EU70
how do you get your skel rig to automatically adjust itself like that when you crouch down? i have to manually adjust every part which makes it difficult for me. ex: when you move the torso down the knees auto adjust themselves to go down as well how?
Little tip: If you want to hide the gizmo icons you can navigate to "Show" on top left corner of the viewport -> Toggle off "Grid" or "Advanced" -> Toggle off "Billboard Sprites"🤘
I would like you to distribute how to move the dragon that is played at the beginning of the video.
The best
I appreciate it!
You can use local coordinate system from top of viewport for better postioning limbs or fingers.
Yeah I started using in Part 2 and on so its much easier, thanks so much for the info!
Nice. If only epic can get some stuff from cascadeur to add physics between movements ehhe
Press G key is a shortcut to remove game control icons trying to be helpful, also really like this vid great job
Thanks for the tip!
So in what software i should do rigging and animation? In blender or unreal? It seems like if i make a mistake or wrong animation, but found it later it would be tricky to correct in unreal if it were done in blender since all IK and custom shapes for bones will disappear. What's your opinion on that?
If you're used to Blender, use Blender.
Animating in Unreal is best for people who want to use Unreal to render their animations. I believe Epic will continue to grow Unreal to make it easier to animate but for now, if you are more comfortable in Blender, use that.
is 5.4 letting you do this without the plugin?
Chaan
So does this contorl rig only work on the maniquin? if i were to have a new character i would need to make that character its own control rig?
Yup! Right now the only limitations are there isn't any facial animation with control rig so hopefully an update can add that too!
please switch to local space :
Okay, I'll give that a shot!
After I finish animating my mannequins, can I apply a different character model to it? I downloaded a model but it doesn't have a Control Rig.
The Control Rig is applicable to any character that has the Unreal Skeleton, so if you rig it with that, then you can switch. But you have to rig the character first.
Where can I find the dragon at the beginning of the video?
The dragon was from the Unreal engine for fortnite trailer, maybe its one of their assets!?
Is unreal engine 5 free to use? And will you at any point make a basics guide from scratch?
Unreal Engine 5 is free to use! And I can! There's a lot of those videos out there already so I didnt think people would want it, but I can give it a go!
@@RoundTableAnimation awesome thanks for the reply! Amazing video too
Is there any reason to do animation in UE? I’m an animator, using Maya and for me the most important thing is animation keys and curves control to be able to do fixes so fast as possible. Animation is always mess, but UE made it even more messy. 😢
Nope, if you're already using Maya. I would stick to that.
I believe Unreal is best for people who want to create/render in Unreal.
What was the slider that was closing and opening the hand?? HOW
That was from the video trailer for the Control Rig, I would love to learn that myself too!
Is there no way we could get that extravaganza pack now? 😢😢😢 didn’t know about it till too late
Unfortunately no, it was a limited sale time, but the discount code for 30 percent still works for anything else in the store if that's any consolation!
The tools are great, the problem is you still need 10 years experience as a senior animator to make realistic animations. That's why now I don't try anymore to create aimations, I try to make games without animations, with an invisible character for example.
Thats fair lol
@@RoundTableAnimation Yeah, no choice
guy, it seem as cheap games feature, better buy animations than make games without
@@TheAmperov I have no money to buy animations unfortunately.
Isn’t there a slider to easily open/close hands please? If not there should be.
My thoughts exactly! I will keep searching for it, but that would make life a LOT easier lol
@@RoundTableAnimation yeah even iClone has it which is super awesome! Thank you for your videos!
What's the game with the read head at the very start?
Fortnite!
@@RoundTableAnimation gross lol.
Yeah I figured out through reverse search haha, thanks though.
Anytime!
It is easier to do such animations through Character Studio (Biped) in 3D Max or Maya. There, inverse and forward kinematics are implemented simultaneously without switching.
Yup! You're correct, but if anyone wanted to do it in Unreal, here's a tutorial for it!
can you please make character animation for beginner in blender please please
Already did, it's on the channel!
Can you do a tutorial using incline 8 tools
I am not entirely sure I know what that is 🤔
" Your seeing all these new cool features in unreal engine " ; proceeds to show uefn
I mean they are not wrong-
Thanks mate, but gumroad links are not working anymore.
Updated!
Video starts at 7:00 also game animators do yourself a favor, use 30fps for animation.
27:14 u some alien or some?
listen
start at 7 minutes for the actual video 🙄
26:36 tf was dat 0_0
You talk too slow, I can't watch this tuto any longer.
👋👋
There is this thing called 1.5x speed. There is even a 2x speed. It allows you to speed up the video.
