Learn how Blueprints work from the ground up: actors, components, variables, and event graphs. Set up interactive objects, triggers, and basic gameplay logic all without writing code, and with a clear focus on VFX use cases.
Animate materials and control Niagara systems using Blueprints and timelines. Create dynamic projectiles, dissolving surfaces, and particle effects that react to player input, collisions, and gameplay events in real time.
Build player-attached VFX, environmental reactions, and effect triggers. Use line traces, radial forces, custom events, camera shakes, and parameter collections to create responsive, immersive effects that feel integrated into gameplay.
Combine everything into complete, real-world effects. Build a fully driven VFX setup (for example: an exploding projectile with dynamic particles, screen shake, physics reactions, and material changes), while learning optimization, reusability, and clean Blueprint organization for production.
Learn to integrate and control visual effects using Unreal Engine's Blueprint visual scripting system. This course provides a hands-on foundation for bringing static effects to life through gameplay logic. You’ll learn how to trigger events, animate materials, drive Niagara particles, and create responsive interactions. All without writing code. By the end, you’ll be able to prototype and implement real-time VFX that react to the player and the game world.In this workshop, you'll build practical systems such as:

Hello, I'm Sebastian Podborowski (aka Robin) and I'm a Senior VFX Artist currently working at Fool's Theory. During my career I contributed to titles like Sonic Dream Team, Isonzo, ToolsUp, Death Roads and couple of other titles as a part of co development teams. For me the best part of VFX is the ability to combine technical knowledge and artistic skills to communicate gameplay, enhance storytelling and make virtual worlds feel more alive.
