Unreal Engine 4 for Design Visualization: Developing Stunning Interactive Visualizations, Animations, and Renderings (Game Design)

Unreal Engine 4 for Design Visualization is the first UE4 development guide written for non-gaming professionals and artists, bringing together all the knowledge they need to leverage UE4's immense power.

World-class UE4 expert Thomas B. Shannon first introduces Unreal Engine 4's components and technical concepts, giving readers a strong foundation for all that comes next. Next, he mentors readers through the entire process of building outstanding visualization content for environment, audiences, and customers -- all with realistic, carefully documented, start-to-finish example projects.

Reflecting the questions most often asked about visualization with UE4, Shannon addresses issues ranging from data import and processing to lighting, advanced materials, and rendering. Throughout, all content is written from the perspective of visualization users in architecture, engineering, or science, not gaming. All sample project files may be downloaded at a companion website, as well as bonus video tutorials.
