Unreal Engine 5 BMW automotive cinematic – my first high-end fan-made project showcasing raw power and sheer driving pleasure!
This short BMW tribute animation was created entirely as a passion project (no official affiliation with BMW).
Full workflow & tools:
Car rigged in Autodesk Maya
Animated using Unreal Engine 5 Control Rig for realistic vehicle dynamics, suspension, and wheel control
All shots, camera animation, sequencing, and rendering with Lumen global illumination in Unreal Engine 5
Environment trees generated using PCG (Procedural Content Generation) framework in UE5
Post-production, color grading, and final compositing in DaVinci Resolve
Narration generated with ElevenLabs AI voiceover
Full custom sound design by me
Shot inspiration from Brandon Li's epic UE5 BMW commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzf5177kNyE
