Ok, I'm in for wonder dynamics. It's a big big "real life hacker" :D. I think you could do almost anything with this AI thing. There's imperfections as you see at the video but if RL find a way to to automate avatar transfer from Iclone or CC4 to WD without going through mixamo as shown in this great but not simple tutorial from our friend teacher duuude, It should be great.

All I can say: amazing! :w00t: Thanks for posting.

This is by far one of the best tutorials I have seen. Keep up the great work.

Yeah, I also did a first test, though it was too heavy what I asked :D:



Anyway, I also see lots of potential for this if we get an easy way to use our custom characters.
Though it definitely is not my goal to enter a text prompt and AI makes my animations!

Thank you Animagic and Ckalan
Toystorylab, I agree 100%, for me too, just prompt and letting AI do everything will take away the fun and it will be no more passion for me. I just like using it as tool, a help, the most thing important is to find the balance . Another thing : how much will it coast ? I hate suscribtion payement. Wait and see

Hopefully Reallusion will develop a profile for wonder studio just as they have for other external mocap systems.

For me personally, I am a more than happy to use AI to let me slide into the the role of Producer/Director with the AI doing all of the “grunt work”.
I am shocked to learn of the ways AI can already automate things such a video production.

I recently “rebranded” my youtube channel as I am moving away from software specific topics (Blender,Daz, Iclone) and onto to a more general channel about all animation, generative AI and reviews of digital entertainment media.
Anyway I was able to quickly generate vibrant new Channel branding art which was great for someone with my graphic design background.

Yeah, I see what you mean Autodidact. For sure it helps a lot and we love it. My question is how much ? :) because I'm not ready to pay too much for it, if it stays affordable... let's see

Cool Charly !
Yeah I am also curious how much it will cost , it will be a monthly subscription for sure like all the others.
One benefit is that you don't need an expensive GPU.
As I know Reallusion they will develop a one button import and export solution for Wonder Studio 😁
I guess the future of rendering (AI or all all the others) will be GPU server.

Indeed, with the notable exception of my $50 Dollar annual sub to voice.ai
I am using the free tiers of all of my other
generative AI tools
and of course chatGPT, and a little Google Bard to write video scripts that I 
plug into voice.ai for my video voice narrations.
hopefully they will keep the free tiers in place.
BTW Adobe has a FREE online editor that has some basic photoshop style features such a background removal of photographs
which comes in handy if you are using one the AI systems that can animate still images of people.

Here is the fbx from WD, I imported to 3dXchange, converted simply and quickly to iclone motion using the maya ik profile. Facial is made after . My Tpose was not perfect so you see a difference in hands and arms but it's not essential. oops, I forgot to remove the body mask on suzan :)

By animagic - 2 Years Ago
That answers my question if you could use the created animation in iClone...:)

Well well well..
I am still running 3DX pipeline with Iclone 7
I Just requested access to the Beta.
By charly Rama - 2 Years Ago
Funny, I thought never use 3DXchange again :). The workflow is simple : drag the fbx from WD to 3DXchange, important : start your video by a T pose save it as a Tpose, reload it, , convert to non standard using Maya IK profile and you send to Iclone 7 (and not 8) with your animation, you'll find it as your named it at your custom animation. Depending to your T pose, you have to do some adjustments but very simple using edit pose in Iclone

Luke (RL) started to make CC4 transfer to MD automatic, I have some issues but it's very very promising

 Actorcore CC is easyest transfered despite a strange texture issue



But after AI enhancement, face is perfect
