The Mocap course is divided into two phases: the group collaboration phase and the individual production phase.

At the start of the course, we formed groups of three to four members to complete the preproduction and filming work. During the group collaboration phase, members assign specific responsibilities for the mocap shoot (such as acting, technical operation, and recording) and work together to complete the pre-production tasks like creating the storyboard, shot lists, or producing 3D environments and assets.

Once the group has completed the mocap recording session in the studio, the team disbands, and the second phase—the individual production stage—begins. In this stage, we must process the captured data according to the chosen recording method (traditional motion capture or real-time capture in Unreal Engine), performing data cleaning and organization. Then assemble, edit, and choreograph the mocap footage according to our own creative concepts, ultimately producing an independent animated short film.
