What You Will Be Doing Data Cleaning & Tracking
Identify, label, and track raw point-cloud data from studio shoots, manually fixing marker swaps or mislabeled tracking points. Reconstruct missing data points caused by actor occlusions (e.g., when a limb is hidden from cameras) using interpolation, smoothing algorithms, or reference footage. Remove jitter, spikes, and artifacts from raw tracking curves while preserving the subtle nuances and weight of the original performance.
Skeletal Solving & Retargeting Solve processed marker data onto 3D character rigs, ensuring the performance translates accurately despite proportional differences between the actor and the 3D model. Correct structural clipping, stabilize feet to eliminate floor-sliding, and fix basic posture/interaction anomalies. Sync cleaned data with reference video to ensure the digital character perfectly retains the actor's emotional intent, timing, and weight distribution.
Pipeline & Organization Meet strict production deadlines to ensure a steady stream of clean data is handed off to the character animation and cinematic layout teams. Fix all structural issues introduced during retargeting, including hand/foot sliding, floor penetration, clipping (limbs passing through clothing/body
