Hey folks,
thank you so much for feedback, much appreciated! :D

@ nealtucker
All animation of this guy:


was done in iClone and sent to Unreal via Live Link.
While I had some trouble (hidden in game problems when recording) to add animation to the same character a day later
I simply removed scene animation in iClone at the last frame of my previous animation.
Then I gave my character a new name (e.g. character_2 instead of character_1) and transferred again.
As I did not move my "iClone Live Link Origin" in Unreal, and in iClone position also remained,
the character popped up exactly where i wanted (exactly there where character_1 stopped) after linking...
After animating character_2 hide character_1 in Game when recording.
Everything else, also camera is done in Unreal.
I prefer working with Unreal camera as it is kinda "smoother" and I also have less "linking"...

Thanks for that,. yes the camera in UR is Sooo nice and smooth as are most thing in UR, you are doing a great job with the tools of IC and UR, the way I see it going is either IC ups it's quality to better match UR for rendering or UR better matches IC for animation,
I think the latter will prevail given URs budget, and I see IC concentrating on their CC line as it seems this is where they have the advantage over the competition and so can make the most money in this field, that being said IC is still the no' one contender for animation hands down and such fun to use,
The other thing that could help IC and the plug-in that I was really hoping for was the Camera solver and tracking addon they said they were working on.

That Sergeant Joker....what a joker.   Pretty cool TSL.  Thought for a sec you were going after the Steyngart novel of the same name. Great render and some weird visuals set to a peppy little ditty.  Characters in crappy masks are always a good choice...  Creepy but maybe not malicious? 

I must be an odd one, i prefer to use iclone camera. btw great video!

Great sets, characters and animation was very well done. Loved the little panzer dude. Unreal has made animated video look, well... real. :D

The implementation looks like a lot of work; but the result is very good. Great story.
Best regards
