Have a look at some of the on-set capture we use at Weta Digital. We did a LOT of Motion Editing and performance changes – it’s NEVER a 1:1 situation and there is a lot of artistry and technical ability required to successfully pull off such an amazing Mocap Film.

Hey guys, I’ve been asked over the years how to work with Mocap data in Maya and if I could share some of my workflows. I’ve done the 1st of a few I have in mind to go over some basic workflows starting with Maya’s native HIK system, and how to retarget motion capture data to a custom pre-existing animation rig.

I cover basic concepts, what retargeting is fundamentally doing, retargeting from fbx mocap skeleton to custom rig, 1st of 3 methods I use and is a good segway into more complex plugins, briefly cover fbx workflow, and some basic Motion Editing concepts.

I hope this helps – enjoy!
