Exploring Unreal Engine, Music Production, and 3D Modeling: A Productive Day in the Life

Hello Guys,

Today was a great but tiring day, however I couldn't do what I thought yesterday that was working with audio and stuff but day was productive so I will not complain either. Let's start from the beginning of the day, I woke up at 6:00 am today in the morning as I have the class at 8:00 am so I need to get ready at time and the class was of Unreal Engine for which I don't wanted to be late, so I just put alaram yesterday and woke up at 6:00 am.

Well, I got ready on time and reached on time to the institute but the institute was closed at that time so we wait for sir to arrive and till then I was scrolling the LinkedIn and I came to know about a death of a legend Sir Ratan Tata, which was very sad as he was the only businessman in the world for who I felt like he is not doing business while running one of the biggest venture group in the world which is Tata Group of Companies.

Well, I wote a LinkedIn post for that while sitting on the stairs at that time, once sir reached we went into the class and started to look into Unreal Engine, which I thought was great we discussed about alot of things like lighting, animation, sequencer and alot of concepts also like optimization and importing different models in Unreal Engine which was great to know. Teacher was literally awesome and have alot of knowledge in the Unreal Engine.

Well, after that class I sat in the institute only as I had another class at 11:00 am and this class got over at 10:00 am, so only 1 hour was there for the other class, so I sat there only and was checking teh Unreal Engine only, checking what I learned right now. After that we went to class, I told sir what I found yesterday about music and vocal separation, so sir asked me to show it to everyone on the screen. So, I explained the tools and the process, which was literally great for me atleast. After that we started discussing about the music and other things in general along while the Audition.

This was because you can learn tool but you need to understand music first to work in it like what sound you actually want. We saw making of sounds for "A Quite Place" as that movie is best to explain what is the importance of the movie as the whole movie has only sound effects nothing, there are almost no dialogues in the movie. So, we saw that and I felt like I don't want to be a sound effect artist I just want to learn as much as I could make BGMs that is all because creating sound effects is hell lot difficult than create a complete music.

However, I don't know why I have some special incline towards music like production BGMs, singing and all. I think as I can understand the music atleast better than photography and videography, I don't know but I never got interest in videography specifically I can still do photography but I am not that much into it but music is something which I feel like this is where the whole world lies for me sometimes. As music can connect to any person who can hear it doesn't matter the lyrics, doesn't matter the genre even if it don't have lyrics we can still touch hearts just by music itself.

Well, I don't know but yeah that is what I feels when I think about music. You can change the whole mood of a person just by music itself, either you need to get motivated or need to get emotonal support or need to calm your mind down, music can do it all without you even feeling anything. That is the power of music for me, well in today's generation I would say most of the people will agree specially on tthe emotional support part but yeah for me all those things work and honestly it is the only industry where I am interested without checking the market size or any stats for it.

Well, let us move forward after that class we got an assignment from our Maya teacher to create a layout of a cafe, well I haven't even installed Maya yet, so I just went to Autodesk website and put my student id to login and install Maya after that we started the modeling and honestly it took my whole day to create each thing that needed to be created.

Well, after putting my whole mind and attention to that project I was so tired that I just came back to room and writing this blog I didn't got time for checking the music or anything yet but yeah atleast I created a descent model which is good for the starting so I am kind of satisfied with my day, so let's see what will happen in the future till then hoping for the best and waiting for the rest...
