STUDIO SHOOT
We offer a motion capture shoot at our studio, where a team of highly trained specialists assist in all aspects involved.
It starts with planning and organizing. Then we welcome you into our stage, where a large shooting volume and a top-notch optical camera system are waiting to bring your ideas to life.
Up to 7 actors can be captured simultaneously, allowing for complex scenes to be carried out. We can provide assistance with hiring professional actors and stuntmen to work with. A virtual set and live retargeting for a real-time preview during the shoot will be prepared. We also take care for the preparation of physical props for capturing realistic interaction with objects (swords, guns, walls, etc.)
DATA CLEANING
High-end equipment and experienced operators result in good raw mocap data. Nevertheless, we offer quality review, post-production cleaning and editing of the animation.
We use the latest generation software for data cleaning and solving to fix issues that could occur in motion capture like marker swaps, occlusions and noise.
The result is smooth and easy to work with animation curves. They can be provided in the form of marker data or solved on to a standard skeleton.
RETARGETING
The next step is to transfer the animation on to your CG character.
We ensure that the recorded motion will fit your model regardless of difference in size and proportions. Humans, creatures, winged and polyped alike.
The animation can be baked to skeletons or transferred to custom control rigs, taking your pipeline into consideration. It can be applied according to your needs in films, game engines and different kinds of advertisement.
We test every rig before a shoot and prepare it for live retargeting. That way you can see how the moves feel right on the spot.
