Step into the world of Harker’s Journal, where we reimagine Dracula’s castle in two hauntingly distinct eras. First, you’ll explore the ruins – a shadow of its former self, crumbling and mysterious, with remnants of forgotten glory scattered throughout. Then, journey back in time to the castle’s prime, where opulence and majesty reign supreme. Each version of Dracula’s castle holds its own secrets and shapes our retelling of the Bram Stoker classic in new and unexpected ways. __________________________________________ - Cinematic Settings using RTX4090 Ti - Ultra Dynamic Sky blueprint for atmosphere - All meshes Nanite and Hardware Ray Tracing disabled. - Vertex Blending used on wall meshes and landscape. #ue5 #UnrealEngine5 #unrealengine #Lumen #nanite #Quixel #vampire #haunted #vampires #dracula #videogames #videogame #atmosphere #fog #lighting #film #3dfilm #animation
