Description from the author:

These motions were all captured with two Kinect V2s. With some subtle key cleanup. In the Compilation it's 99-100 percent mocap. In the official episode there are other motions not done in ipisoft but I wanted to include it in my submission to give better context to things. There are some other ipi movements sprinkled throughout the episode not mentioned in the compilation but were either not the main focus or too subtle. and almost ALL of the monster scenes were mocap save for a few moments. Again, hence the reason why I wanted both to be included in my submission.
I will continue using ipisoft its great for directing animation and giving directors more room to do there job. I hope to use it to branch out and make other full fledged series.

I tried to make a Michael dance video. The motion was captured with the iPi Soft 30 day trial using one kinects V2.

I have taken just in one day to capture all scene, but I have reworked a lot of skins motions because these motions are fast.

I have put the ipisoft skins motion (.bvh) on a 3D character made with makehuman.

I am very impressed to have this result only with one Kinect!

Description from the author:

For this i used express version of ipi motion capture studio 4 and a single front facing Kinect 2 sensor. I also used blender for the tail motions and rendering, after effects for blending the footage, and lastly premiere for general editing and sound design. Godzilla is motion captured and the only key-framed element was the tail.
