Hi Charlie, I'm attending film school right now and this video is so valuable. I feel the workflows they are teaching are "old school" and this can save so much time. Its worth the time and effort for the actors to give their best performance because I'm a very visual person. I will definitely watch more of your videos.

Hey! Thanks very much for this, really appreciate it! I have one important question: does it matter whether you have an Iphone 13 Pro or a 16 Pro for Livelink facial mocap or for Move One body mocap? I`m interested in terms of significant or relevant quality improvements in terms of capture? I`m really debating whether to invest in an Iphone 16 Pro due to better cameras or would a 13 Pro do the job just fine? Thanks!

I do not know if there is a difference, that is a good question. I used an iPhone 13 and it seems to do pretty well. I am just guessing, but I imagine the quality improvements would be small, if any. It's still 30 fps, and I don't think the resolution of the camera makes too much of a difference. There might be a difference in depth sensor resolution, but I am not sure.

Really interesting previs process, but I guess I will redirect the question you asked back to you 😅 do *you* think it was worth it? 25 hours of previz work sounds like a lot, but if you are spending 100-200 hours making the actual film, then I think it's actually worth it. I guess it would work well for large-budget and longer films, but curious what you think of doing this for shorter or indie films?
@NorthwoodsInteractive
@NorthwoodsInteractive 15 күн бұрын
Totally fair point, and my answer is the it is totally worth it because I really like to elevate short films as much as possible, regardless of the budget. Basically, a short film should be a labor of love in at least some aspect. Otherwise, what is the point?

I have had somewhat similar thoughts regarding filmmaking on a budget. How Unreal could, with good use and preparation, become a tool that will allow indie filmmakers to think outside the box and not find themselves so constrained. I especially find it interesting to do a scan and be able to plan a shoot in advance, for those situations where you only have a limited amount of time to film on location - either because of the lighting needed, or because of a need to minimize an impact on the everyday lives of the people that live or use the locations for their day to day things. Very interesting!

I know what you mean, obviously previz has been done forever. But I have not seen much, if any, previz done in UE5 using full performance capture with metahumans, and a lidar scan of the location. Lots of stiff mannequins or rough animations, but nothing that makes me feel like the movie has been shot and edited to a point that it really represents what the final film could look like.

It was a movie previously made in previs, but there weren’t a lot of VFX shots besides the horse. Definitely worth checking out companies like The Third Floor. Cheers!

Hi, this looks really nice, I'm here after watching your 2 hour or so tutorial on Crazyman in full. Really easy to follow/understand. I was wondering where did you find the KingKong character and did you animate the face using MetaHuman Animator also? I assumed MetaHuman was (as the name suggests) only for MetaHuman facial animations?

Thanks, really glad you found the tutorial helpful. The sasquatch guy in Gigantic Joe was a character on the Unreal Engine marketplace. It had blendshapes and was setup for LiveLink animations, but it was not a Metahuman. I bought the asset, then sent it to a character artist to convert to a custom Metahuman, so I could use Metahuman Animator with it. Same with the pig guy, and the orcs in my other videos

Hey Charlie, I randomly came across this as I've been tinkering with Blender & UE5 for a while trying to figure out a workflow. Absolutely blown away by your experience, thoroughness and attention to detail. Thanks for this! Definitely looking forward to more tutorials of this kind (if you plan on doing that) because as a complete rookie there are many more basic things I'd love to learn about, even something simple as animating along paths and keyframing, project structures or just render strategy since I suspect when it comes to a narrative there isn't linear animating & rendering. Anyway, just wanted to say, I'm extremely impressed and grateful at giving us rookies a bit of an insight into a UE5 workflow!
