Hey guys, I’ve been asked over the years how to work with Mocap data in Maya and if I could share some of my workflows.

I cover\u00a0basic concepts, w<\/span>hat retargeting is fundamentally doing, r<\/span>etargeting from fbx mocap skeleton to custom rig,\u00a0<\/span>1st of 3 methods I use and is a good segway into more complex plugins, b<\/span>riefly cover fbx workflow, and some basic Motion Editing concepts.<\/span><\/p>\n

I hope this helps – enjoy!<\/p>\n
