I think stuff like this further reinforces the value of actors over the animators. Sure they only have to scan an actor once to get a metahuman model, but they need the actor to give the actual performance.
- jayd16 4y agoInstead of one over the other, what might happen is the role of mo-cap actor and animator become a single role. Animators and actors both create expressions and poses of the character. Animators already film themselves in poses for inspiration. In the future, a single person might end up taking their own mo-cap video as well as polishing up the animations for several characters.
