AI-assisted 3D animation
Physics-based character animation with AI autoposing — create realistic action animations without mocap.
Motion capture, 3D asset generation, camera tracking and procedural animation. The least mature category here, but improving fastest, and the output is genuinely hard to produce by any other means.
Expect to treat AI output as a starting point rather than a finished asset. The time saved is in blocking, not in polish.
