Emerging Technology Faculty Workshop: Virtual Beings and Motion Capture

Meet your digital presenter—designed by you, animated by your face and your movement, all from a phone. We’ll help you build a MetaHuman, capture a short performance, and assemble a tiny scene that feels alive. No coding: just clear steps, a few buttons, and some theater-class tips on framing and voice. You’ll see how a smile or a nod reads on camera, how a light can flatter, and how a few edits make it sing.

We’ll also keep you safe: consent, likeness, and storage explained simply with ready-to-use forms. Think of it as a miniature studio session with a digital actor you control. You’ll export a 20–40 second clip that’s showcase-ready—and a workflow you can repeat.

This event is for FIT faculty only. 

Note: This workshop is also offered on Sept. 25, at 1 pm.
