How Video Games Come To Life

[@StretchSense]

If you look at our content at 02:35-02:43 that is pure motion capture - we added texture in Maya and used Optitrack for positioning in space but there is zero clean up in that footage. It's straight data from our gloves.

[@spookah_hhhh]

Guys I worked really hard in this from Gameboy to Nintendo Switch they got so much detail from motion capture.

Dis is just amazin wow... I wish I could do dat stuff

[@inescosta2671]

if you are interested in this thing, some games actually have their motion and performance captures on youtube videos, more notably The Last of Us

[@staticbuilds7613]

Watching this while writing about doing this for Uni is weird but really helpful. Great video as it has a lot of good information

After watching this video, I was surprised that the efforts of CIG using many of these tactics to make Star Citizen & Squadron 42 was not mentioned even once. Which was quite a shame.

[@tyrroo]

They didn't mention a lot of games that use mocap, because this isn't a listicle

[@LMitchellAnimation]

Oh hey I'm in this lmfao glad to see mocap getting much more exposure, everyone always thinks its "the green suit with the ping pong balls right?!"

[@Corkylife2021]

Sweet video, good information 🙏

[@HellSpawnRulerOfHell]

16:40 Yes... One day. About 3-4 Years ago. lol (Well, less for full Motion Capture and even less for Performance Capture)

[@merrymerrymead7749]

Very interesting and well put together video.

[@ygny1116]

Better title would be "How video games want to be movie"

[@octuplesquid5826]

This is very interesting

[@spider-man7482]

Certainly

[@Savi-digital]

01:27 is that dude good? damn lol

[@ZainAK283]

Nice video!

[@ashbradford]

It seems fairly criminal to talk about the history of performance capture and not once mention James Cameron, seeing as he created it...

[@inescosta2671]

tell us more!

[@DapperDanLovesYou]

Didn't Inside Gaming JUST make a video EXACTLY like this?

[@inescosta2671]

hhuuummm....that is interesting, I will check that out after watching this video🤔. THx☺

[@TheN0odles]

Actua Soccer was one of the first games to use mocap.

[@P17-v9k]

Interesting

[@Necr0Mancer666]

Mo Cap only creates the mesh work. What about sub scatter reflections, real time raytracing, global illumination etc? These are what makes the game come alive!

[@blaizegottman4139]

So that's how it works I thought it was animation

[@kisfekete]

Actually, it's at least 50% animation, mocap 'as is' needs to cleaned up, retouched, corrected by animators. Example: those big camera headrigs make it impossible for the actors to touch their face, so any interaction with the head needs to be revised heavily. At the same time, there are games with 100% hand animation, like Overwatch.

[@selforganisation]

Didn't Tekken 3 from 1997 also use motion capture?

[@chaytenghag9246]

Plz make a how to train your dragon pitch meeting

Hi!

I didn’t know I was controlling another human being literally. Like literally controlling another human being. 🤯

Hi

And yet all of these are DEEP in the uncanny valley. Terrible.

[@TracksideViews]

Cyberbugs 2077

[@berengerdietiker22]

Engaging and educational, though I was most interested in motion capture pertaining to filmmaking and not gaming.

[@tyrroo]

Umm, the video is TITLED "How VIDEO GAMES come to life"

[@berengerdietiker22]

Yes, but the segments pertaining to filmmaking appeal to me most.

You said elliot? Her names is Ellen Page.

[@tyrroo]

Not anymore, she's decided that she's a man named Elliot now

[@patrickbateman556]

@@tyrroo Well good thing she can not decide being a "man", she was born a girl & she will die a woman. No matter what she names herself.

[@wowsocreative]

HIS name is Elliot Page, maybe you could decide to respect other people's decisions.

[@patrickbateman556]

@@wowsocreative Her name is Ellen, did you know "His" is for men and not women?? Not too difficult since there are only two (Male and Female). It's not about "respecting people's decisions", it's about biology & facts.

[@wowsocreative]

@@patrickbateman556 Transmen are men. Get over yourself. You also seem to confuse sex and gender. Different things.
