Light-Dance motion capture

Hi, this is part of my motion capture project for Bradford university. everything was made by me except the skull (which is a model i have the license for).

The motion capture was performed by Cernamoret Paul Andreiand recorded at Bradford university and cleaned and edited by me with Vicon Blade, motion builder and Maya.

The two dances were captured separately then joined in maya.

The set works in real-time and moves according to an audio input and the circles below the skeleton move to movements of the character, the idea is that if you were streaming real-time motion capture you could have the set reacting to the dancers moves and music/vocals through a mic.

Music:

Jordin Sparks, Chris Brown - No Air ft. Chris Brown

TC - Wheres My Money (Caspa Remix)
