Indoor Skydiving ~ First Encounter at Paraclete XP

I have uploaded a new video to my Youtube Channel: I captured this video at the Paraclete Xp Indoor Skydiving building in Fayetteville, NC. It was my first time to ever see a group of people skydiving indoors. It was so awesome and EPIC!! I was amazed at how they were flipping upside down and then right side up like they had no weight. My kids were amazed. I told them that their turn would come once they reached the required weight and height. I wished I could have motion-captured this whole exercise. It was just so awesome 🙂 I can’t wait to give it a try myself.

iClone & iPhone X Facial Mocap with Perception Neuron Pro for Full Body Mocap

Napoleon Full Body Motion Capture and Facial Motion Capture ~ This is a quick voice acting session I did with the dialogue of Napoleon, inspired by Napoleon: Total War Trailer, a video I saw about 8 years ago, that was created using Faceware. In this Second test, I added a full-body mocap take using a Perception Neuron Pro suit that was kindly provided by Noitom. I rendered this scene in iClone using Iray.

The results are pretty cool and very promising. This take was raw and unedited, which goes to show how much the tech has advanced compared to 8 years ago. I highly recommend the Perception Neuron Pro Mocap Suit, iClone and Motion Live, plus Live face as a solution for your short films and cinematics.
