Book DescriptionIf you excel at creating beautiful architectural renderings using traditional software but want to master real-time, interactive visualizations, this book will show you how the versatile Unreal Engine 5 enables such transformations effortlessly. While UE5 is widely popular, existing online training resources can be overwhelming and often lack a focus on Architectural visualization. This comprehensive guide is for both beginners and experienced users offering a clear, end-to-end approach to creating stunning visualizations from scratch as well as managing tight deadlines, striving for photorealism, and handling typical client revisions inherent to architectural visualization.
The book starts with an introduction to UE5 and its capabilities, as well as the basic concepts and principles of architectural visualization. You'll then progress to essential topics such as setting up a project, modeling and texturing 3D assets, lighting and materials, and post-processing effects. Along the way, you'll find practical tips, best practices, and hands-on exercises to develop your skills by applying what you learn.
By the end of this book, you'll have acquired the skills to confidently create high-quality architectural visualizations in UE5 and become proficient in building an architectural interior scene to produce professional still images.What you will learn

Familiarity with the Unreal Engine’s interface and basic operations is assumed.
Ludovico Palmeri started his career as an architectural engineer, soon specializing in architectural visualization by attending the master of digital architecture in Venice (M.A.D.I.) in 2017 and further refining his real-time skills with the Unreal Masterclass at the State of art academy (SoA), both internationally recognized institutions, top players when it comes to training for archviz. He has worked for renovated architectural firms worldwide as a 3d visualizer and soon after started a freelance career, where he worked with different real time companies (Brud and Dapperlabs, Purple, Why, Goldsmith university of London), where he learned alternative workflows to real-time visualization, improving standard approaches to archviz in UE5.
