Project Avalanche: a Dedicated Toolset for Motion and Broadcast Graphics | Unreal Fest 2023

Project Avalanche is a dedicated toolset for motion and broadcast graphics in Unreal Engine. It combines the robust 3D and animation features of the engine with 2D layer design tools for a new hybrid workflow familiar to existing designers. This enables users to easily create on-air compatible graphics as well as high-end 3D product design and advertising visuals.

I can't wait for this to go public and for everyone to get their hands on it. Andy and the team have been cooking on this for many years yall wont be disappointed 🤙🏾

I dont think people understand what a game changer this is. This will blow up the motiongraphics industry like an atomic bomb. I have been using C4D/maya/redshift/AE for years. This literally will change my entire work flow. This will be a direct shot at Adobe and they MUST respond. Are we looking at a post Adobe future? I am so excited about this that I keep telling everyone I work with "A storm is coming and its going to change everything!"

Like others have said this is going to completely shift the industry. I’m a 2D/3D motion designer and even with the highest spec machine you’re bogged down by poor playback speeds and long render times. Had my eye on UE for a while, mainly for the 3D side..But this completely blows the doors off. So happy a company is actually tackling this issue because companies like Adobe/Maxon never innovate. So hyped!

[markuswalker]

Hell yes. Looking forward to not needing AE to do this stuff. Just incredible!

[pshethia]

We need 3 part course please

1) Essentials
2) Intemediate
3) Advanced

I CANNOT WAIT. This will generate so many opportunities and jobs. I can’t wait to spend all day night weeks months and years learning this.

[carlosrivadulla]

Incredible, another huge leap for UE and for us.

Did the AE & C4D route for 15 years, moved to Fusion and Blender for the past 5 years, I saw so much potential in Unreal but not a comprehensive set of tools for motion graphics, this will make a huge difference when its out, I think it would be the king of Motion Design, great company, amazing philosophy, not greedy, TONs of support, yeah for freelancers and small studios will benefit as well for the licensing deals, and big studios will benefit as well since it will be a one stop shop since you can not only create but transmit directly from the engine, this is huge, sorry to compare but this is as big for me as when blender introduced EEVEE and now EEVEE NEXT, but with this set of tools for sure I'll rather be doing the finals here in Unreal. Congrats and can't wait to test this set of tools.

Seems like EVERYTHING I could not do in AE will be possible to do in real time. Can't wait to get my hands on this and start learning!

[rbnks]

Can't wait to work with these tools, this is amazing!

[satishpillaigamedev]

This effort to fill the gap into broadcast industry is mind blowing 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 any link to beta access guys ?

[Megasteakman]

This is great! I'm really excited for these tools!

[LetTheWritersWrite]

Adobe has had a monopoly for a long time and I'm so excited to see UE finally giving me the ability to toss AE aside. AE needs so many expensive plugins and hacks to do even 10% of what they just demonstrated here. This is amazing and its in real time!!!

[weareflink]

It would be a killer if this would replace the widget system in the engine!

11:34 Halejuja live boolean !!! 💫💫⭐⭐
I hope they go really crazy with it.

I woudl love too see: Boolean also working on a lot of an parented objects, like booling an abstract moving kind of robot into a box, having negative walking half people in cubes etc.... you can really go crazy with realtime booleans without limits. Or an additional Voxel boolean system.

[macronomicus]

That looks like so much fun to use, keep up the great progress, im looking forward to use it!

[sabkarim]

This is absolutely amazing! I am really excited for this!

[chidi]

Looking forward to getting my hands on this. Nice work!!! 🤤

[TaylorDaleWright]

Wow! This looks incredible, I can't wait till we get a chance to work (and play) with it.

[AFXGuru]

This looks stunning - game changing and I can't wait!!!! Congrats and thank you Epic Games/Unreal Engine
