Character Rigging & Cinematic Animation in God of War with Erica Pinto & Axel Grossman

[@MeshVoid]

Axel Grossman blew my mind that work is AMAZING!!!

Beware the sudden jolt in volume around 06:50 - 07:00 if you have earphones. Thanks for this presentation!

Not all heroes wear capes.

This is a fantastic talk by both presenters. It really shows the amount of work that goes into pushing the edge of technique, from a high level perspective down to the deep dive. Thank you for posting this, Gnomon.

i still want to know what the world serpent says to you at the end of the game

As a game designer I thought this was necessary for me to watch this 🙏 thx ・ありがと

[@SVAFnemesis]

i'm 2 years too late to this mind opener, but thank you so much.

[@soyunbonus]

Wow, everyone should see this to understand the gigantic amount of effort that you have to pour into a AAA game.

[@wesk4646]

God ! This was so interesting. Thank you for that share. I hope to see more teaching conferences like this in the future !

[@wesk4646]

I just watched the second part one more time. This is dope.

[@emptybruh]

Ah "not responding" on every click, classic maya experience

[@LoneWolf-tk9em]

& i got recommended this after 2 freakin years 🤷 even though i have subscribed to gnomon way before. KZbin is strange

[@Chadowgon5]

I wish we would have kratos skirt at the end of the game, and old boots, without the top. Like before

[@mr10pink]

What size was the animation team involved in the cutscenes?

[@RDD87z]

kratos has quite a lot of polys omg.

[@Hellsing7747]

There is a difference between 6'4 and 2 meters...

[@vergil2067]

Kratos isn't even 6'4" in the new game.

[@denenterpriesesorwhatsleft6386]

@@vergil2067 he's stated at 6"6

[@vergil2067]

@@denenterpriesesorwhatsleft6386 Yeah, back in 2005. He's like 8'0 now.

[@axelayalajimenez5324]

[@-Ice_Cold-]

@@axelayalajimenez5324 He wasn't been 7'-8'0, even in old games

[@utoresa5193]

Kratos may have lost a lot of height due to the blade of olympus going through his spine.Yes it healed BUT the first time it was by a primordial titan,Kratos always lacked abilities and was given magic,his main power is brute strength.Its entirely possible his own healing ability "curse" is far less potent than Gaias healing power.Canonically the blade grows more powerful all the time when stabbing and killing,the blade Kratos used at the end of gow3 was far more magically powerful than the start of gow2,it's known that Kratos has trouble fully healing from some godly attacks and is left with scars always.

[@Assassin-js1jp]

Nothing implies that he suddenly grew shorter because of the Blade of Olympus. No canon explanation exists to support your claim.

[@vergil2067]

@@Assassin-js1jp He’s probably still around 7’6 canonically.

[@lightmohamed5700]

@@vergil2067he definitely is confirmed in the comic books it’s just as the video says it’s to make him closer to his actor height and look more realistic. also their numbers are wrong that’s 7’7 not 7’6 there based on his 2.35 meters and 6’4 isn’t 2 meters either

'But how do we get that MotionBuilder data back in Maya?' - Why would you do that? Just make that FACS rig in MoBu, finish everything in MoBu and export directly to game (and never go 'back' to Maya). ;)

No shiet genius?
