My ambience video creation process | Peek behind the scenes how I made "Rustic Lake House Evening"

Here is another peek into my process of how I make my ambience videos. I like to share my process because it shows how much work goes into my videos. I also hope that by sharing, it helps to encourage other ambience video creators by giving an insight into my methods.

There are many ways to make ambience videos, such as 3D modelling, scene-building and rendering; or compositing and digitally painting with images and brushes or illustration; but it usually always involves adding post-render animated effects and sound design, to create the finished scene / atmosphere.

As for me, I usually follow these five phases:
Phase 1: e-on VUE 3D scene creation - sculpting, modelling and painting
Phase 2: Photoshop for additional edits, or added compositing techniques
Phase 3: Adobe After Effects for animations and effects
Phase 4: Sound Mixing to create the soundscape - I just use Ambient Mixer
Phase 5: Video Editing to combine everything together - I just use iMovie

🏝️ * How I make my videos *

You can watch another process video here:

All of my videos are completely original and made from scratch. They can take weeks to produce and are completed in different stages.

I create my 3D scenes in VUE. This involves sculpting terrains, sourcing materials, modelling items, and placing them into the scene, adjusting lighting, angles, and many other effects.

Once I’ve rendered the scene, I might use compositing techniques and other adjustments in Adobe Photoshop to add in new features. Then, I import it into Adobe After Effects, where I bring the scene to life with various animations and effects.

Next, I create a soundscape specifically for the atmosphere by combining several sounds together using a sound mixer, which involves applying various settings and adjustments.

Finally, everything is put together with video editing software and uploaded here for you to enjoy!
