Sams Garage - Developing a Control Rig for cars in UE5

Sams Garage is an experimental short film I made together with classmates at Visual Magic. We were tasked with creating a short film from a brief, storyboard and look book. The film is about liminal space and an unknown driver stuck in limbo, trying to escape a parking garage.

My primary role in the project was to research and develop a control rig for cars in UE5. Since there are literary no guides on how to do this I had to try experimenting my way into making a control rig that we could share and animate in Sequencer.

After creating the control rig I also animated the car movements in the video. Fun project! Shout out to my teammates in the project:
