This talk was given during devcom 2020 and is reproduced here with the courtesy of devcom staff. More on devcom here. At Nukeygara we are rethinking 3D animation with an emphasis on user experience every step of the way to faclitate the work of animators. After going through a bit of history and the main design philosophies driving the creation of tools, Charles-Arthur BOURGET, CEO of Nukeygara, will go over a typical biped workflow in akeytsu to demonstrate how these come into play in our toolset dedicated to the craft of keyframe animation.
ABSTRACT
3D animation has become a rather complex discipline requiring both technical and artistic skills. How can we instill creativity in production pipelines that, powered by generalistic DCC software, are leaning towards automation and hyperrealism? You need to start afresh from the needs of professional users - tormented 3D animators tasked with mocap cleaning duties when they were trained to create beautiful motion - and reinven
t a toolset putting the emphasis on user experience to maximize productivity… and above everything pleasure at perfecting the craft.
