Real-Time Supplemental Work

 

2023 Unreal Fellowship Animation-Rigging Project

I was selected for Epic’s 2023 “Rigging & Animation” Unreal Fellowship. In 3.5 weeks I created the above reel for my fellowship project, designing, animating & lighting as I attended the courses. An incredible experience. Thank you Epic and Instructions.

Stats: 1/3 pure keyframe animation, 2/3 mocap, 173 cups of of coffee.

How I created the Project Video as I learned UE :

  • Mocap clip & Camera Blocking

  • ”Set” Design (I was going for a Tron-like look)

  • Material and Lighting Design

  • Keyframe Animation

 

Setup & Trained UE ML Deformer For “Stitch Live” Setup

Created thousands for random poses for Stitch and simulated Stitch’s Skin & Muscle using ILM’s Zeno Simulation Software. Input resulting poses to UE ML Deformer for the “Live Stich” Setup.
