Dive into the grid with Aharon Rabinowitz as he shows you how to use Unreal Engine’s powerful Chaos Fracture and Motion Design tools to create Tron-style rezzing and de-rezzing effects. Learn how to animate the build-on of a light cycle and text from cubic elements, and then shatter them using dynamics. You’ll also learn how to set up materials to glow as objects come apart, how to create holographic fresnel effects, and how to animate the transitions with just a few keyframes. By the end of this tutorial, you’ll know how to quickly and easily create beautiful animations that look organic and complex.
NOTE: This tutorial uses the preview version of Unreal Engine 5.7 (available to the public) to access some features that were new to 5.6 but not fully developed.
