![]() First and foremost, I want to mention that I harbored a few biases going into this assignment. ![]() It was so easy and profoundly joyful to avoid all of the hassles of retargeting.As someone who is, so far, working exclusively in iClone 7, I decided to document my trial and errors with a few of their facial animation techniques (whether manual features or motion capture plug-ins available as an iClone pipeline feature). Reallusion provides you with the Live Link plug-in and with MetaHuman Dummies, which are basically iClone retargeted bodies for specific MetaHuman body types. MetaHuman was also incredibly easy to set up. No retargeting is needed, the team from Reallusion already did that for you. Once done with that, you just export FBX Rokoko and import it iClone. The data was then processed with Rokoko Studio filters like Locomotion and Drift fix, which really saved the day. It took me 15 takes to get it right, it really makes you appreciate the talent of actors and performers. The whole capture was referenced, prepared, and trained. So my use of motion capture was basically for blockout and I kept mostly spines and neck movements as original data. To be honest, my studio is crowded with equipment, so magnetic interference was a problem and caused a lot of noise in the data. For motion capture, I used Rokoko's Smartsuit and Smartgloves.
