mocap character animation
The result of a university project in which a silent movie themed animation had to be produced using motion capture technology. This first involved creating a new character in the style of the stitchpunk characters from the post-apocalyptic film, 9. The personality of this new character which I then attempted to portray with the motion capture suit, is that he is an old, eccentric scientist of sorts, who is both actively curious and cautious at the same time. The animation explores the reactions of the character as he stumbles across a lantern, before following his attempts at trying to grab it.
