The Future of Broadcast Design and Animation

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Project Avalanche is an in‑engine motion graphics toolset that combines procedural geometry and a 2D/3D timeline so designers can author and tweak graphics live instead of baking offline renders, demonstrated by a Rocket League package and broadcaster surveys (65% want 3D packages, 81% want 2D). Features include an improved World Outliner, SVG importer, a basic remote control logic system for exposed properties, a simple playlist output (AJA, Blackmagic, NDI), and a target experimental release in 5.2 Q2.
