Unity Bolt Visual Scripting Tutorial. No need to write C# script!

Is your playable character in the wrong position & facing the wrong direction following a cutscene? Here's how to fix it using Bolt visual scripting inside of Unity game engine.

No need to write C# script! Fully fixed using only Bolt visual scripting.

Here's how to make sure that your playable character spawns in the right position following the ending of a cutscene. Avoid having your player appear close by but in the wrong position and facing the wrong direction.

Know of a more efficient way? Let me know in the comments. Much of my learning is self-taught from piecing together unrelated pre-existing tutorials. I'm always looking for more expedient Unity workflows!

Fast. Simple. Precise instructions. We're adding Real-time Global Illumination to the HDRP Sample Scene in today's video.

Here's what you need to follow along:

Future Global illumination tutorial videos will follow as Unity releases stable releases of future versions of Unity Editor (because we all know how Unity Headquarters loves to move things around within Unity - even things that don't need to be moved 🤣 . I think they just like to keep us on our toes - but we see you Unity HQ... we see you 😉.)

A side-by-side comparison look at rigging characters for animation in Unity game engine.

We're comparing:

It's incredibly common for film crews to add particulates to the air on a TV/Film set. They call it 'creating atmosphere'.

It's a powerful tool that carries over into your virtual production workflow for creating additional realtime separation between foreground and background elements on screen.

In this video, we are going to casually explore how digital fog works inside of Unity virtual productions and how you can use the Unity game engine to create your own perfect fog to tell your virtual production stories using Unity.

SHOT IN MY LIVING ROOM. You don't need expensive LED volumes and complex camera tracking technology to create really great photo-realistic virtual productions inside of Unity Game Engine.

In fact, I shot the live-action footage of myself using my Android smartphone and I built the environment inside of Unity game Engine running on a 2020 M1 MacBook Air with 8 gigs of RAM.

That's right, I'm running Unity on a M1 MacBook Air with 8 gigs of RAM!

In this video I break down the Unity virtual production workflow I used to create this photo-realistic shot of myself sitting in front of a 3D campfire.

What is the proper way to Lerp between 0 & 1 for an exposed Shader Graph property using Bolt Visual Scripting?

I have an exposed 'Lerp' property in my #Unity3d URP Shader Graph. I have a "Toggle Unit" & a "Material Set Float Unit" in my Bolt Flow/Script Graph. They don't link up properly.

Do you have know eyes on a solution?

Here is a Unity real-time filmmaking clip serving as a proof of concept for a short film I am in pre-production for. I'll be making this film with friends over the course of a single day in front of a green screen.

I'll be using Unity 2020 LTS and a few assets from the Unity asset store. Very excited to be embarking on my first truly collaborative adventure into Unity Virtual Production with integrated live-action footage!

I've always loved the concept art for films more than the actual movies themselves.

This is always because concept art isn't constrained by the limiting real world constraints of budgets, location permits, travel, etc.

So, because I'm getting really invested into Unity virtual production, unity VR and unity XR I thought I would create a piece of living-and-breathing concept art!

I'm super stoked with the results. How do you think it turned out?

P.S. I'm very interested in soaking up every piece of information I can get my hands on that centers around getting the most photorealistic unity virtual production results. So if you have any tips, I want to hear all about them.
