iClone 8 Becomes a Tour de Force for Mocap Animation Editing

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 12, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Featuring Trailblazing Mocap Animation Workflow

Mocap animation editing is an essential skill in digital entertainment, regardless of how the motion data is sourced. Although natural performances can be obtained via optical tracking, mocap suits, AI generation, or pre-made motion files, studios still struggle to refine animation data for their precise requirements.

iClone has been used in major mocap productions for decades, proving itself as a top-tier solution for mocap animation editing. With the release of iClone 8, this cutting-edge software offers professional-grade animations at a fraction of the cost, time, and effort required by other applications. Know more >
