Summery of Research
I did three case studies of videos that helped me the most in which I further developed my skills and knowledge about cinematography.
Cinematography
Case Study #1
This video is a live stream he did as he was creating a small environment. I learned a lot throughout the video as well as the general workflow of an environment artist in unreal.
He gave useful tips and knowledge while responding to any questions from his live. He used techniques I had already used but expanded on the uses for them.
This gave me inspiration as I want to test and improve my environments. He used a modular asset pack in unreal to create an industrial environment.
In this Video he gives tips for using modular assets which helped in my research as I had tried using a modular asset pack in the past but had no idea how to put them together, Also I tested using a reference which helped the general parts of a building in my scene.
The several types of small props and pillars for a building and the electrical wire for the train was harder to place and get right compared to large buildings pieces.
Cinematography Case Study #2
This video is interesting because a lot of her mistakes, I had made too however the solution we came to was completely different.
She also elaborates on media player to have a video played within the sequencer.
I could have used this to create a video for the train or model a tv that is old and broken but has some power.

This video also helped my skills in premier pro to edit the cinematic in adobe to add transitions as the only transition in sequence is fade however for the game, I have used a different method to stop my camera zooming out when the sequence is finished
