TURBINE

A cinematic 3D animation that explores mystery and atmosphere, featuring a modern villa laying in a fog‑covered valley ringed by tall wind turbines. The scene has a slightly surreal feeling, soft volumetric light and drifting fog amplify isolation, inviting the viewer to wonder about the story hidden in the valley.

I created most of the assets in Blender and exported them to Substance Painter 5 for texturing. I sculpted the valley landscape in Gaea, inspired by Nordic grasslands, and places like Faroe Islands. Then I imported terrain and assets into UE5 and added foliage (grass) to landscape. Lighting was set with an HDRI and directional lights. For volumetrics, I added 2D planes with animated materials to simulate fog. I animated camera shots and the turbine´s rotation, and created a Blueprint to control the red blinking lights sitting on top of it (one Blueprint drives all the light emitters for synchronized control). After finalizing animation and effects I exported the sequence to Premiere Pro, where I added music, sound effects and completed the final edit.
