Sequence from "Back To Life" - Motion Performance Capture
Project Type
Motion Capture
Date
Semester 2 (Jul - Oct) 2023
This project involved taking existing motion capture data from a performance and retargeting it to closely match the recorded footage. Our first introduction to facial capture, and the complex and time-consuming acts of motion data cleanup.
The process involved taking the facial capture data and doing a first round of cleanup in Faceware, before importing onto the metahuman model in Maya. After a few rounds of cleanup and animation in Maya the body data was brought in from Cortex and applied to the rest of the model, with more animation cleanup for the body motions. Then the head and body animations were brought together to create the final product.
