Alien (aka Toyman)

This animation was created at the Institute for Electronic Arts Immersive Technology Workshop in 3D Scanning and Motion Capture on July 25 - August 5. The workshop was funded by a grant from the New York State Council for the Arts.

This animation was conceived and finished during the workshop in 1 week. The model was sculpted out of colored clay, 3D scanned, and then imported into Maya. The movement was created using a motion capture suit. The motion capture data was bound to a simple rig and the 3d model. The final editing was done in Unreal Engine. The final output is meant to be projected full screen across three adjoining walls in a surround video gallery.
