Podcasts about iclone

Creative director, director & producer Geoff Hect discusses the use of Reallusion's iClone and Accuface for markerless facial capture and animation.

Whilst January's news begins with more of the same ole genAIs doing their thang, because they can, there's now evidence of more concerted effort to control the efforts of creators... because the corporates and policymakers can at least try to do that, right?  Well, maybe, but all this has achieved in the past is even more creative energy invested in jumping through the hoops, clambering over the walls and crashing through the hedges - so Happy New Year, we're looking forward to seeing what the amazing machinima creative communities of all engine persuasions around the World can achieve in 2025!  Plus, we discuss iClone's new update, a couple of interesting creative projects celebrating content creators in their own ways, as well as interesting milestones.1:15 SORA-not SORA6:51 Runway's Act One7:39 Face Depth Frame Mancer9:00 Riot Games dishing the riot act11:06 Fortnite's achievements12:53 Why was Andy Serkis not playing the horse?14:00 JT Music's Halo tribute14:42 Bullet Time Agent17:14 Reallusion's iClone update18:51 After Astartes: this is what happened to Syama PedersenCredits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Damien Valentine, Tracy HarwoodProducer: Damien ValentineEditor: Phil RiceMusic: Animo Domini Beats

In this ep, we reflect on the key trends in #machinima we've observed during Season 4 of the Completely Machinima podcast. We'd love to hear your thoughts on the year too, so do add comments below. During the past year, we have reviewed over 22 hours of content, and presented detailed analysis of over 50 films on this channel. As vets of the original community practices (that's pre YouTube and the M.com/Inc days), one of the great pleasures we take in this podcast is that we get to look at machinima and virtual production across the breadth of genres and engines, by creators from anywhere in the world, and reflect on where its come from, how its evolved and is developing. This year, we have seen amazing quality films made in popular games such as Half-Life, World of Warcraft, Elden Ring, Star Citizen, Warhammer 40K and Team Fortress 2; have had the pleasure of exploring work made in entirely new games, like BeamNG and Deep Rock Galactic; and others made using engines in their base form such as Unreal, iClone and Source. We've also started to see #genAIs become integrated into processes and works. What a year for creatives and creativity! Our main observation is that we have noted a resurgence of interest in machinima as a terms for the creative form, and we feel creators are at long last focussing on creative practices rather than their channel return. Of course its great when these things collide but it was never what machinima was about originally: it was the passion for great storytelling, using novel processes to achieve a desired outcome and to share that with a community of equally passionate others. Other observations are why we are not seeing as many traditional short stories as we used to...We hope you enjoy this ep as much as we have making it. Credits -Speakers: Ricky Grove, Phil Rice, Tracy Harwood, Damien Valentine Editor/Producer: Phil Rice Music: Animo Domini Beats

This week, we discuss the art of machinima filmmaking, emphasizing the importance of craftsmanship, freshness, and humor in exceptional storytelling, as evidenced in 'Lonely Episode Two: The Package Thief' by TheBizTheBiz. We analyze the efficiency and density used in delivering witty lines and twists in what is essentially a modern retelling of the Lone Ranger, using mariachi music, masks, and character development, clever use of language and a well-executed comedic setup.Credits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Tracy Harwood, Damien ValentineFeaturing: RickAI aka AI Ricky, or Skibidi RickProducer/Editor: Phil RiceMusic: Animo Domini Beats

This week we discuss two very different films, both reflecting a bygone era of classic entertainment.  Firstly, an interpretation of the 1954 Japanese classic Godzilla, made in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Its unusual for a couple of reasons: its been made on a handheld Nintendo Switch in a game not really known for its creative application, and its been released only on X (Twitter). Its timing is perfect to capitalize on all the film and TV series hype at the moment so it was always going to find an appreciative audience - definitely one to check out.  Secondly, Phil has created an iClone and AI-based video to the Tom Lehrer song, Lobachevsky - its the ultimate accompaniment to this well-known political satire.  Phil discusses his creative process in its making and we also discuss how the original song came to be made at a time when Lehrer was walking a tightrope for a few reasons, so we reflect on its timing and impact.1:37 Shinto Ritual by Sumoguri discussion (Godzilla), made in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom20:27 Lobachevsky by Phil Rice, made in iClone and with AI tools; Phil discusses the challenges of using public domain content and learning a new toolset through a creative processCredits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Tracy Harwood, Damien ValentineProducer/Editor: Phil RiceMusic: Anno Domini Beats

Phil catches up with a long-time machinima creator Ben Tuttle, aka 4413 Media.  Ben admits he cut his teeth on The Movies in the late 2000s, and then discusses Shockbreak, one of his latest productions.  They get into the detail of how the film was created and generally Ben's creative workflow using iClone, Character Creator, Unreal Engine and a heap of other tools integrated into the production process.  They also discuss the merits of using AI and the difficulties of social media misinterpretations. Ben shares with us some teasers for his upcoming films.Credits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Ben Tuttle (aka 4413 Media)Editor/Producer: Phil Rice

A performance by a camera ham, shutterbug or just a plain histrionic narcissist? This week's review discusses an older machinima that has highly contemporary themes in it: carry-on-regardless, daydreaming, whatever, so long as the virtual camera is rolling. The film is called Daydream (2009) set to the titular song by Lovin' Spoonful, created by  @Mystfit and made in  @Valve 's Half Life 2. Needless to say, we loved the humor but what makes this machinima interesting is that it was a scripted production created by running a path sequencer inside the game, harking back to the early days of how machinimas were made and so is reminiscent of how contemporary tools such as iClone and Unreal now work. This week we also begin with  @RickyGrove talking about ultra-wide monitors, using it to play Elden Ring (a mod required) and the #SAGAFTRA strike; and,  @zsOverman gives an overview of his remastering project of the Machiniplex collection and his homage to the great Hugh Hancock, founder the #machinima movement, the upcoming showcase of Bloodspell and also his own response to some of the hoopla that Hugh created at the time of its release in 2006! 1:38 Gigabyte and ultra-wide monitors 4:16 The actor and writer strike, significance and implications 10:43 Black Mirror, Futurama and the internet - prescient episodes 15:38 The Machiniplex Collection at https://bit.ly/Machiniplex 20:32 Hugh Hancock's Bloodspell, John Lennon and the Overcast - releases and background 24:48 This week's pick: Daydream, the Lovin' Spoonful soundtrack and Mystfit Credits -Speakers: Ricky Grove, Phil Rice, Tracy Harwood, Damien Valentine Producer: Tracy Harwood Editor: Ricky Grove Music: Intro: Doctor Dreamchip & Outro: Arps Solina

This week's film selection comprises 2 shorts, both untitled but actually worlds apart in their development. Its not often we get to comment on a first ever machinima project as the framing for a creative idea but our first film is just that, by Sydney Walker, and made in an environment we have never seen used for machinima before, Final Fantasy 14. Our second film is a psychological thriller, drawing us in from a the whole world of familiar cinematic language in a way that we struggled with in the Astartes Project.  BUT, the title needs work because "iClone shorts" just doesn't cut it for us... over to Just Art Animation Studios!  Credits -Speakers: Phil Rice, Tracy Harwood, Damien RiceProducer: Phil RiceEditor: Ricky GroveMusic: Arp Solina

After we first talked about this project last April 2022, we were thrilled to see what a stunning job @MartinKlekner has made in the 21 Jan release of the first episode of Heroes of Bronze. We were not disappointed: the film and work stands up to AAA Assassin's Creed Odyssey studio work, but with amazing detail of historical artefacts and storytelling, which is even evident in the way clothes move on characters. Damien couldn't put our views better when he says this work inspires him to want to do better with iClone. We're definitely looking forward to the next release - bring it on! 5:12 The story is told through the memories of a soldier's wife. 8:45 A beautiful and moving film. 11:05 The historical accuracy of the film. 16:39 Historical accuracy and technical details. 21:04 The importance of realistic portrayals of ancient times. Credits -Speakers: Ricky Grove, Phil Rice, Damien Valentine, Tracy HarwoodProducer: Phil RiceEditor: Ricky GroveMusic: bainmack / punk rock short 31

This episode of CG Talks (the podcast where CG guys talk about Computer Graphics) is the second part of our conversation with Kay John Yim - a London based architect who also creates inspiring personal CGI fantasy artworks. Kay John's main tool of choice is Cinema 4d but he has used a lot of 3d tools throughout his career (including Houdini,Rhino,IClone and many more). We talk about the softwares and workflows he uses to create the stunning and very detailed architecture environments in his artworks as well as tools he uses to create his characters. We touch the topic of AI tools that cause so much hope and controversy in the digital art community. John creates a lot of animated artworks so we talk about using render farm services (such as our service) and his experiences with it.

Hour 7: iClone with Benjamin Tuttle iClone is a real-time 3D animation and rendering software program that enables users to make 3D animated films. Real-time playback is enabled by using a 3D videogame engine for instant on-screen rendering.

Byah, byah, byah! Ahem, that was me practicing my jiu jitsu moves via text... anyway, horrible jokes aside, if you've ever wanted to motion capture your fighting moves, dances moves, or pretty much anything else -- then this episode is definitely for you! In this episode we talk to James C. Martin, Owner and operator of Mobacap, a company that specializes in providing motion capture services. James talks about a powerful, yet inexpensive mo cap suit by Noitom called Perception Neuron. He also discusses some very interesting 3D and 2D tools, in CrazyTalk and iClone, that integrate nicely with Unity. Thanks again for tuning in this week and we hope you enjoyed the show! Feel free to send any emails with comments, questions, and concerns about motion capture in Unity, to: thedebuglog@gmail.com
