Powered by the most advanced motion engine

Xsens delivers high-fidelity mocap through cutting-edge biomechanical modeling, built to capture movement with unmatched realism.

Mocap to go

It doesn’t matter if you’re working on a big-budget summer blockbuster or a small independent film, MVN Animate bundles enable producers to capture motion on the go.

From raw to real – fast

Whether you’re bringing a single robot character to life or capturing thousands in a battle scene with a wide shot, VFX artists can quickly turn raw recordings into super-realistic HQ animations. What’s more, you can see recordings on screen in real time.

Thanks to the simplicity of the Xsens motion capture suits and set-up,

we could easily capture the fight choreography, get into our rigs, and then start working with cameras in Maya to deliver an early cut."

Scott Meadows
(Head of Visualization)

My team of animators and I have taken the Xsens motion capture system home. We’ve had to do a lot of mocap in our living room,

and the on-body recording also allows us to capture performance in the other parts of the house, like the hallways and stairs, when we need to record climbing or running.”

…You definitely need a system which is not only robust and dependable but something that is also quite portable and mobile.

Whether it’s running three concurrent characters, delivering dramatic dialogue for a video game cutscene, or high-dynamic stunts in fight scenes – on-set or on-location – we’ve done it all.”

Dave Fialla
(Director and Co-founder of The Mocap Studio)

One thing that I’m really proud of is that we completed around 400 shots within just 6 months with a small team, but we didn’t have to do any kind of overtime – not a single minute!

Using this motion capture is definitely one of the reasons why we were able to give the artists part of their lives back.”
