Tamer Shaaban (CS 11) has created a promotional video exclusively using Unreal Engine 5, an open-source game design engine used to develop Fortnite and several other popular video games. The video hypes Audi's upcoming Formula 1 debut.

Shaaban is a filmmaker and user-interface designer who shared the video on LinkedIn this week. He said, “I wanted to excite Audi and F1 fans. I had no car, but I had the experience of directing and technology at my disposal.”

Shaaban said his goal was to push Unreal Engine’s technology to its limits to showcase its potential.

“I came up with a creative that would rely entirely on building something photorealistic with the heart and spirit of Audi’s racing legacy,” said Shaaban.

“Here’s to the future of the Audi F1 Project and the powerful future of imagination.”
