Sadly for anyone starting that's the bar you have to reach, especially in mocap work where your competing with studios that have invested hundreds of thousands and have teams of staff for every aspect.

Agreed... just like graphic design... schools start pumping them out like water.
The mocap is an issue... but I am breaking it down one at a time. Just ordered my facial recognition yesterday, should be here by Wed, 5/4. Knowing limitations is the key.. a lot of this stuff gets broken down into segments. I can provide the facial animation that can be added to someones animation later. Once I get the facial gear, I will have the ability to generate much better realism. It will read movements and expressions. It will also record 2 characters at the same time which can be useful.
I know I have a long way to go... shit, I just started doing this end of Jan. this year. But the videos get better with each one. I should have left the original up for comparison. That was my bad.
I do not mind criticism, it helps me get better. However some people don't know the difference between being Frank and being Dick... (Best line in Planet Terror
). And I think I gave this person a bad taste with my one post about the trial we had here where he was bitching about it being political when it was just about the trial. It seems since then, he has had an issue with me. No biggie, I am not losing sleep over it.
Anyway.... with luck, this new set up will give the faces life... I am looking forward to Wed. Oh and there is a bonus, this works with the 2D software I have as well. Like a kid at Christmas
