Motion Capture Tech for Percy Jackson Musical
Captured performer motion for projected digital character animation
Summary
I configured and operated a ROKOKO motion capture suit system for an animated character in an adaptation of The Lightning Thief. I worked with the performers, animators, other techs, and the director, using technology with to align with the creative direction. The configuration comprised of a full mocap suit with gloves and socks, a custom configured router, and a live rendering in Blender for quick takes.
Key Contribution: Facilitated motion capture for The Lightning Thief Minotaur character, collaborating with performers, animators, other techs, and the director.
