Automatic motion capture with Deepmotion and Blender

In this short video, DJ shows how he uses a new Deepmotion.com online service to turn a video of himself moving into an animated 3D character. To achieve this all you need is a smartphone with a camera to record yourself (or someone else) in motion and upload the video to 3d animate cloud on deepmotion’s webpage. You can get a free trial of Animate 3D here: deepmotion.com...
Animate 3D prepares an animated rig based on the video you upload. This is truly automatic motion capture! You can download the animations as fbx or bvh and import them to Blender or other 3d programs like 3dsMax, Maya, or Cinema 4D.
In this video DJ also shows the process of binding the rig with animations to a pre-made character from blender cloud (made by Andy Goralczyk). To do that you can use parenting with automatic weights. With only a few clicks you can have a 3d avatar repeating your moves!
Here are a few tips from Deepmotion on how to prepare the video to get best results:
- Keep the camera still and parallel to the subject
- Make the whole body visible
- Shoot the footage in neutral lighting and have a contrast between the subject and background
- The video can be maximum 60 seconds long and up to 50 MB size
- The character in the video should be the only thing visible and not occluded by any objects
- Wear possibly tight-fitting clothing (loose clothes that cover key joints might give worse results or errors)
This makes motion capture available for everyone and incredibly simple. With almost no skills in animation, you can make your 3d characters come to life! No mocap suit is required and you don’t even need any special markers for tracking.

    I'll add that we can go into the animation and edit it in Blender to correct anything needed to be corrected like the hands etc... prior to rendering it out. Cool tutorial overall and very helpful for folks. Curated!

    Note for everyone: This program sucks ass when you aren't using a character model that is mirrored on both sides. I'm using a custom mesh that is disfigured and unbalanced and every time I run the animation after applying the parent weight, the mesh just implodes slightly so every limb clips through itself. No idea how to fix it so I've given up, but the advanced users can probably figure this out...

    You need to provide the essential joints in the following FAQ. However your rig can have extra joints for hands and feet. We will add some simple procedural hand animations to the hand rigs in the result .FBX / .BVH, you can however replace them with your own hand animation in Blender during the post processing. In general, for all the joints besides those essential joints we will keep them in neutral/bind poses. blog.deepmotion.com/2020/11/19/animate-3d-custom-characters/
