Hey everyone!
I'm a full-time author and I'm now growing my YouTube/Social channels. I tell stories (See a sample:
https://youtu.be/PH5QEJ5bxlU)
My goal is to create these same stories, but with a 3D character so the experience can have more magic/immersion.
After tons of research and testing, the best pipeline so far has been:
1. Character Creator 4
2. iClone for Acculips & Animation
3. Export to Unreal for amazing 3D scenery/camera systems
My problem is, I'm not a Reallusion expert and I want to focus on storytelling and not the technical stuff.
Could someone guide me on creating an easier pipeline?
Ideal situation:
1. I write the story
2. I record the audio for the story
3. I drop the audio file into Acculips
4. The character animates (including eyes and hand movements (like a TED talk))
5. I click a button or two to sync that to Unreal Engine
6. I record
I'd love it so that if i make a 60-second story, I could have a YouTube short ready to go like in 10 minutes.
Any ideas on how I can really streamline this?
Also, do you know where I can hire experts for this? I'd really like to focus on the content and not the tools.
Thanks!
Mark
