Join Chris as he shows publicly for the first time a new workflow toolkit that reduces common pipeline bottlenecks in design visualization. Using a stunning model from Italian architects Lissoni, he will show how to save hours, if not days, in data transfer and preparation time, while creating a fully interactive, photorealistic real-time visualization experience.

Hear the inspirational tale of the transformation of a VFX studio into a cutting edge transmedia company. Marc is joined on stage by Digital Dimension’s Louis-Simon and team as they discuss the move to real-time production, prompted by David Dozoretz’ Zafari, an animated children’s TV series for NBC Universal.

Join Chris as he explores how Unreal Engine’s new workflow toolkit does the heavy lifting in moving and organizing data sets several orders of magnitude above typical video game requirements. Using Manufacturing data courtesy of Harley-Davidson Motorcycles, Chris explains how we can move manufacturing-relevant data into the world of real-time visualization for a multitude of uses.

Rendered entirely in Unreal Engine 4, “A Hard Day’s Nite" is an action packed, animated short film created to promote Epic’s video game Fortnite. With its high production values, the film's creators engineered an enhanced CG animated pipeline that was supercharged with Unreal technology. The result is indistinguishable from a traditionally rendered piece but with the added advantages of being viewable or modifiable in real-time. Hear from the Fortnite team as they demonstrate how Unreal's advanced cinematic tools empower storytellers of all experience levels to realize the benefits of real-time workflows.

Twinmotion 2018, developed in Unreal, provides realistic, real-time and interactive rendering for everyday use in architectural visualization. Join Martin as he demos a non-destructive workflow between BIM and Twinmotion.

We kick off the evening with CEO Tim Sweeney in conversation with Enterprise GM Marc Petit - and a very special guest. Get the scoop on our latest games such as Fortnite and Paragon plus learn how real-time technology is also transforming workflows beyond games - from animation to architectural visualization and product design.

Zoox is developing a ground-up, fully autonomous vehicle fleet and supporting ecosystem for the next generation of mobility-as-a-service in urban environments. Tim Kentley-Klay, CEO and co-founder, will show how UE4 provides the ideal platform for high-fidelity simulation of sensors, physically accurate vehicle dynamics and highly realistic graphics - key components for the development, testing and validation of our autonomous vehicles.

Esri CityEngine enables urban planners and architects to create parametric 3D urban environments to visualize the relationship of projects, assess their feasibility, and plan their implementation. Esri is researching how Unreal Engine could be used for city-scale projects and VR experiences. This demonstration will show how designers, such as Greg Schleusner from HOK, can use CityEngine and Unreal Engine to explore and communicate urban design projects.

With reference to “The Human Race” - the groundbreaking, real-time film from Epic Games, The Mill and Chevrolet - Michael will show how Unreal Engine is shifting the boundaries between production and post by allowing directors to instantly render, integrate and view photoreal assets and visual effects within live action footage - while on location. The potential for this hybridization of film and gaming goes far beyond car commercials – with implications for audiences, consumers and directors alike.
