The work and the Skill behind it
What was made
A 22.395-second dance video and rigged character become a playable character animation. The preview combines body and hand motion with synchronized source audio, a stage, and ten cinematic camera shots.
What the Skill contributed
The workflow covers motion capture or BVH reuse, retargeting to the character, stage alignment, camera authoring, and export. The performance, audio, and rigged character are provided inputs rather than outputs of the Animation Skill.

01 / Input
Start with the performance
The dance video, source audio, and rigged character define the movement and visual target. The screenshot shows the source-video inset beside the character preview.
Read the production brief
Use the supplied dance video and rigged character to create a character animation. Capture body and hand motion, keep the source audio synchronized, start with a wide shot, slowly push in, orbit left at 8 seconds, and pull back at the end. Keep the feet visible. Provide cinematic, full-body, side, and free views, plus local recording, Animated GLB, Original BVH, and Repaired BVH exports.
01 / Input
Retarget and direct the motion
The workflow captures or reuses BVH, retargets motion, aligns the stage, and authors camera moves. This side-view screenshot shows the resulting preview, not the hidden retargeting steps.
02 / Process
Play and inspect the animation
The viewer presents the moving character with camera choices, synchronized audio, and local export controls.
