We made all characters animations with your software (already bought 3 months subscription) but we are small team and it would be amazing to win 1 year subscription to make animations better :)

The special prize 1:
Description from the author:
Hello, we created a video in the SFM where 90% of the animation is done in iPi software.
Description from the author:
In creating the first series, we used 2 kinect v1 aka 360. But we were not happy with the result of their work and therefore purchased 6 PS3 Eye cameras. We are very pleased with the result of their work and
you can see them in action in the second series of our mini-series and in our backstage video. Thanks for the awesome magic from iPi ! And for the opportunity to participate in the competition!

The special prize 2:
Description from the author:
-I used the only Kinect from Xbox 360 console and key animations. Sometimes I had to edit mocap animation myself in Source Filmmaker because I added for example some weapon in somebody's hands and that weapon went through textures so I had to move those hands quite back. (Like Wrench in Engineer's hand in behind the scenes video)
-I animated this video for 115 hours of pure animation. I tried to create easy but excellent story with great animation.
-There are 132 cuts; 249 sounds; 84 created cameras; 55 models; 8 particle effects.

Description from the author:
I tried one night challenge to mocap how can I do fastest and best animation. And suppressing even my so small and not ideal for capture room its success.
I used 2 Xbox 360 Kinect and 3 ps move to mocap.
Also used vocaloid 5 and Hatsune Miku English v4 base.
I made in very small room and with lots of colorful items in it. And with 4 cat ( they sometimes join my set ).
Mocaped charters are :
Hatsune Miku and Hachune Miku ( Mini Miku )
I used Radeon VII and its super-fast render to tracking progress. It impressed that speed.
Lyrics of song:
I guess you wondering
how to mocap
Now listen carefully
First select your cams or sensors and get them
Than get tripods for your each cams or sensors to use
Get your extinction cables
If you want more correction
get your motion controllers
Be sure got Bluetooth
place your cams or sensors as ipi wiki shown
Get your iPi Recorder
If you using Kinect be sure correct Kinect S D K installed
Open iPi Recorder
and start to connect all
Before record lets calibrate our setup
First evaluate background without actors
Than If you using Kinect get ready your cardboard or Glowing Marker
Or using P S three eye cams get ready your Glowing Marker
And don’t forget to set your cams to blue dot
also set your Calibration Mode too
Now you are ready to press recording
If you doing Glowing Marker method Draw your mocap area with your Marker like this
If you doing cardboard method do like this
-------------------------------------
Now after calibration
Hit the recording button again
Do your T pose And act!
After record import clip to iPi MOCAP STUDIO
than start to tracking progress
If you got motion controllers don’t forget apply their data
after tracking progress
Than start cleaning progress
First run Refine
Than run Jitter Removal
Lastly choose Trajectory Filtering level
Import your model
Set your bones of your model
Select a format what you need
than export your animation!
And you done.
Its that easy!

Description from the author:
All main characters are recorded on 3 ps eye + ps move cameras for head tracking. Tracking was done in IpiSoft Studio 4. Most of the characters were recorded on one Kinect 360.Tracking was done in IpiSoft Studio 2. I was very impressed with the result of tracking the head without ps move in the old version. All additions to head movements are recorded in the second version.
IpiSoft Studio 4 + 3x ps eye + ps move (Mars, Slark, Kunnka, Undying, Sniper, dancing at the end of the creep, a creep peeking out over Kunnka)
IpiSoft Studio 2 + kinect 360 (Juggernaut, Dark Willow and the remaining)

Full dance was mocaped using 6 Playstation Eyes in a 2.5m by 3m space. Hands were keyframed in Mocap Studio. Rendered in Autodesk Maya. This project was inspired and dedicated to the late Monty Oum, who inspired me in do animation. This video is a recreation of his original dance choreography, which was challenging for me to learn as a non-dancer :D.
