This week on the VO School Podcast we are talking about Motion Capture… or is it performance capture? Or maybe facial capture?

It is in fact all three, and we learn what each one is, how they work, what you need to know to work in them and how an actor can forge a career in this mysterious corner of the video game industry.

Joining me to discuss this is Carlo Mestroni, voice actor and voice & performance capture director extraordinaire from Montreal, Canada.

Find out about Tee-Poses, facial ROM’s, eye lines, constellations and volumes. We also talk about a typical working day, the unique challenges present in motion capture and what to expect in your first mo-cap session.
