HENDERSON, Nev., Feb. 4,
2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Movella, a leading full-stack provider of
sensors, software, and analytics, has partnered with internet
sensation Corridor Digital to deliver Hollywood-scale 3D characters. Corridor
Digital's recent viral video project featuring comedian,
Joel Haver, has pushed the
boundaries of what Movella's Xsens
motion capture technology for digitizing movement can do, treating
assets rendered in Unreal Engine as real-time footage.
Founded in 2000 by VFX artists Sam
Gorski and Niko Pueringer,
Corridor Digital provides an entertainment and education platform
to its 15M subscribers. Movella's Xsens motion capture system enabled
Corridor Digital to remove the high barrier to the creation of 3D
character animation.
"When we first got our hands on the Xsens suit we knew it was
the solution to our character animation challenges," says Gorski.
"Now, we have the ability to create animations driven by human
actors instead of laboriously making them in different software
packages. The greatest asset the Xsens technology has given us is
the incredibly clean data capture, which has completely changed our
workflow."
Working with Haver to produce long takes of improvised comedy,
Corridor Digital recognized the Xsens Link system's ability to push
data directly into Unreal Engine. This enabled fast rendering of
VFX proxies that allowed the team to work with extended clips in
the same way that editors would in a live-action project.
"Our partnership with Corridor Digital has enabled some of the
most imaginative and exciting content on the internet right now,"
says CJ Hoogsteen, VP Sales & Marketing at Movella. "It's a testament to the ingenuity of
their team that they've managed to create such cutting-edge
content, free from traditional optical camera studio systems. This
is a great example of Movella's
Xsens technology driving the democratization of animation. We can't
wait to see what they'll do next."
