It honestly took some courage to switch my main 3D software after years of using Cinema 4D. It was a pretty scary move at first, but when I discovered Bad Decision Studio’s tutorials on YouTube, I was convinced it was time to dive in. Their energy is incredible, and their motivation is truly contagious! 🖤🖤

NEOLIPTUS

Creative Director and VFX Artist

I've used Unreal Engine in production for over 15 years, and out of curiosity I watched all 19 of their Star Wars UE5 beginner tutorials from end to end. It's some of the best training content I've seen, and I even learned some new things I wasn't aware of.  

Aside from the technical, I just love these guys, Faraz and Farhad are a beacon of light in this tough industry right now. Their positive energy, humor, and enthusiasm are infectious.

Jason Key

VFX Artist, Evangelist at JangaFX

When I first discovered Bad Decisions Studio, we were right in the middle of a project facing some challenges that felt nearly impossible to overcome. While browsing YouTube, I stumbled upon one of their tutorials—and it was a game-changer. That one video sparked an idea that helped my 3D team crack the issue, and we were able to deliver a successful project to our client.  

Since then, I’ve been following Bad Decisions not just for the high-quality tutorials and creative tips, but for the inspiring journey they share. Faraz and Farha have become friends both on and off screen, and I truly admire their mission. Their first Unreal Engine course was a huge support for my team—especially in a field that still feels heavily gatekept. These guys are doing amazing work to open up access and knowledge for everyone.

Take it from our people

Justin

Senior Character Animator, New York

"I am a professional feature film Senior Character Animator for over the past 17 years. Currently working at Framestore and I’ve worked at studios such as Blue Sky, Illumination, Dreamworks, and ILM.

Before the Unreal Engine for Beginners course at Bad Decision Studios, I was pretty intimidated by everything. There is SO much information out there for free on YouTube and a lot of paid courses- all that cover so much. What I loved about Bad Decisions Studio’s course is how relatable and fun their demeanor and personalities were, which truly made for a fun learning experience. These softwares can get pretty technical, but the energy they bring into the course is really contagious! They distill everything down to it’s simplest form.

While I still have lots to learn, I feel confident enough to approach my own cinematic shots in Unreal Engine with the knowledge and tools that I learned from the course. I’m sure I will have to refer back to some lessons for some things, but that is part of the process. You can’t learn this stuff overnight, but I am amazed how far I came in just 3 days (although I definitely could have done it in one day too, haha!)The coolest thing I learned was the Sequencer. As an animator, I’m excited to bring characters to life through this tool and in a real time environment! I was also super impressed by the real-time lighting and reflections that they demonstrated through the course. I am extremely excited to see what opportunities this can open up for me in my career as I know that a lot of studios are diving more into Unreal Engine to replace or supplement their pipelines.

Thanks again to the brothers at Bad Decisions Studio for making this a great decision for me to learn this powerful piece of software. Can’t wait to see what is next!"

Marco

Environment and cinematics design, Italy

"I didn't have any previous experience before the tutorial series, never even opened an editor in my entire life. Today, when I open UE5 I feel like at home. The challenges are still there, but I'm able to navigate through them with confidence. The coolest thing I learned is how to work with animations, cameras and sequencer, which is my superpower now.

Finding this tutorial wasn't just about learning UE5, it was like finding my passion, and this has completely shifted my career aspirations."

César

Game Director based in Paris.

" I had no technical background in 3D or game engines and had never worked on Unreal projects before.

Starting by recreating the Star Wars project step by step helped me understand the whole process of creating a short film in Unreal. It gave me enough confidence to start my own project. I felt very confident in every step of the creation process, knowing I had already gone through it once. I really enjoyed spending time trying to recreate a cinematic look through anamorphic lenses and lighting. I also learned a lot in terms of problem-solving techniques that I now use all the time in my day-to-day work!"
