Video Training →How to Characterize a Character in MotionBuilder: Motion Capture Animation

The success of any mocap project in MotionBuilder depends on how well youCharacerizeyour character.

I'll cover all of these topics as I prepare character for editing phase. You'll be able to watch and follow along as I show you every decision I make, and tell you my thoughts as I am doing so.
