Metahuman Liveness
Demonstration on how we are designing a hyper-reality adaptation of Shakespeare's Macbeth featuring life-sized metahuman digital doubles that appear to intelligently interact with live actors in a virtual production volume. Attendees will learn how to stream Livelink body data from a mocap source to an invisible metahuman using Blueprint coding, and then spatially design actor-metahuman manipulations that appear improvised and reactive through virtual trigger boxes in the virtual production volume.
