Take a look at this impressive breakdown and submission from Fabricio Moraes for Clinton 'Pwnisher' Jones' 3D community challenge, Kinetic Rush! 🏃‍➡️

With a solid dose of Rokoko mocap in the mix, Fabricio took things to the next level with this one. Outstanding! 👏 #madewithrokoko #3DArt #KineticRush

I usually work with Unity3D. Last week I decided it was time to get familiar with Unreal Engine 5. 

If you are a creative person I highly reccommend having a play with it. You will be surprised how much fun you can have without being a coder! Understanding the basics in coding is helpful but being an excellent coder is not necessary as the visual coding system (where your code is in a box and you link the boxes together) is relatively straight forward to use. 

It took me about a week with zero UE5 experience, and some expertise from the amazing Johnny Pope  and Georg Finch to get my Rokoko motion capture suit 'puppeteering' a 3D rigged character in real time. You guys are simply the best 🙏🔥

There's the time that goes into making your rigged character if its custom, with a skeleton and Apple's 52 facial blendshapes - about 3 weeks to 2 months depending on the complexity and uniqueness of your design.

Then decades of puppeteering, live performance and animation experience is perhaps less quantifiable.

I thought about my dear departed grandad, Ken Clark, an animator and editor of the Animator magazine produced by Cosgrove Hall when I was a kid. He taught me frame by frame hand drawn and stop motion animation as soon as I could walk 😆. He would have been amazed at the speed we can animate now.😮

Now is a time where a Createch skills - being an animator, a character designer, a puppeteer, a storyteller and a live performer underpinned by technical expertise is a brilliantly useful combination. 

Thank you Rose Goodship and Falmouth University for the opportunity to complete a micro residency at Immersive Business. Post Masters Alumni support to explore innovative techniques and new business ideas is priceless.

Being with my son working on Mothers of the Metaverse in VR is my happy place 😍🌈🙏👇😊😊😊

👏 We’re absolutely loving all the incredible submissions for Clinton "Pwnisher" Jones' #KineticRush competition! We’ll be re-sharing some of our favorites.

New YT video! I decided to test the workflows around full body mocap and facial capture 😄 A fun mix of problem solving and my first time jumping into #UE5 Metahuman Animator.

Used the Rokoko headrig and Coil, plus the Movella xsens suit and MANUS™ metagloves at different points. And a huge thanks to Dell Technologies and NVIDIA for sponsoring the video 🤠
