After applying to over 200 3D animation jobs and getting ignored, I decided to stop waiting. I built this cinematic from the ground up using iClone 8, Character Creator 4, and Unreal Engine 5 — with my own custom motion capture and facial animation.
This short scene is raw, intense, and 100% animated by me. Every breath, every blink, every word — directed, performed, and brought to life in real-time.
💥 Tools Used:
Unreal Engine 5.3 (Cinematic Lighting, Camera System)
iClone 8 (Full Body Mocap + Facial Capture)
Character Creator 4 (High-Detail Character Design)
Blender (Environment Elements)
