Introduction to Motion Capture, Editing, and Animation in Unreal Engine

"Introduction to Motion Capture, Editing, and Animation in Unreal Engine" serves as an introduction to Unreal Engine 5.2, focusing on animation and motion capture techniques within this renowned platform known for its advanced real-time 3D graphics capabilities. The primary emphasis is on importing motion capture files into 3D characters and utilizing motion editing in the timeline using traditional keyframe animation methods.

For In-Person Attendees:

We have a limited total of 32 seats available with Mac computers, divided between two labs (Mac Labs 425 & 427). Please secure your spot as soon as possible to ensure your participation.

For Remote Participants:

We understand that not everyone can attend in person, so we are offering a Zoom option for remote attendance. However, it's essential to note that remote participants must have a computer system that meets the necessary hardware specifications to handle Unreal Engine. We won't be able to provide remote troubleshooting for Zoom participants before or during the workshop. You can find the minimum and recommended hardware specifications on the unrealengine website. We highly recommend that remote participants familiarize themselves with Unreal Engine's user interface before the workshop. A practical tutorial is available.

Unreal Engine is available for free download, enabling you to start preparing for the workshop right away.
