A physical day of exercises, play and exploration as well as some theory on the technology and methodology of how motion and performance capture works with industry veteran Richard “Mocapman” Dorton. This is a chance to build a solid foundation for working in performance capture.

This class does not take place in a mocap studio or in mocap suits as it would only serve as a distraction and additional cost at this stage.
