Learn how to work with MetaHuman Animator data in your Unreal Engine projects in part four of this new video tutorial series.
In this video, Gabriella Krousanio (of Feeding_Wolves) will explain how to move from MetaHuman Animator to Unreal Engine when you want to start using your animation data in games or production. This lesson includes an introduction to the faceboard, editing curves, and layering animation. It will also cover combining face and body animation.
Created by Epic Games, MetaHuman Animator helps anyone using an iPhone or stereo head-mounted camera (HMC) capture an actor’s performance and turn it into a high-fidelity facial animation in minutes. The resulting MetaHuman animation can then be used for films, games, architectural visualizations, and more. Anything that requires a human touch.

Hi, Thanks for the video but How did you add the facial board that big on the screen?

@screenapple1660 Год назад

List of things I predict the future. UE version 10 you can zoom in and see microbes, mosquitoes, bugs, AI generated plankton.... Petabyte SSD. I predict Intel Processor 1586, Nintendo uses Renesas Processor, etc. I predict Google attempt to make new game engine similar scratch program or UE blueprint. I also predict UE sues video game engine company (Microsoft or Google parent video game engine companies) for copying free monthly asset idea or business model. UE doesn't allowed any companies copy free monthly asset. They will collect million dollars in IP royalties, business practice, etc. Don't worry just watch the future news...

26:06 Official explanation of the head / body detachment issue.

@ejmartinez2508 6 месяцев назад

Any idea how to keep the facial animation and have the Metahuman stare at the camera the whole time? I know how to do both separately but the moment i try to do both together it fails. Thank in advance.

28:49 High level process for stripping out head/neck rotation data and adding it to an intended body animation. Prep 1. Export MetaHuman Performance with head rotation and replace skeleton 2. Export MetaHuman Performance without head rotation 3. Have intended body animation ready Summary 4. Bake intended body animation (from 3.) to Control Rig (MetaHuman 1 Body) 5. Bake performance animation with head rotation (from 1.) to Control Rig (MetaHuman 2 Body) 6. Copy Control Rig head/neck rotation data from MetaHuman 2 Body and paste it to an additive Control Rig layer in MetaHuman 1 Body 7. Add MetaHuman Performance without head movement to MetaHuman 1 Face Thanks so much!

Thank you, your breakdown was helpful!

@terry9183 9 месяцев назад

Thank you for the breakdown, I think I may be doing something wrong though. 'replace Skeleton' on step one?.. not sure i understand this part? And the part where she says she copies the animation from the face to the body skeleton and makes a body component, how is she getting the animation from the face to the body? How do you get 'Bake to body control rig' from the face component? Thanks in advance

@emdo.unlimited555 9 месяцев назад

@@terry9183 Clarified below - my original comment was more of a bookmark to myself and admittedly very clunky looking back in hindsight. I also posted a step-by-step video on my channel to follow along as I made minor process changes to the above tutorial for efficiency purposes. Prep: 1. Export Animator Performance animation sequences - one with head rotation data, one without head rotation data 2. Have two Metahumans added to a level sequence and remove default control rigs - one is the "finished product", the other is a staging ground for extracting head rotation data. Process On the "finished product" Metahuman 1. Add the intended body animation to the body and bake to control rig 2. Add the animation sequence without head rotation to the face On the "staging ground" Metahuman 1. Add the animation sequence with head rotation to the BODY - "Allow Incompatible Skeletons" should be ticked on in order to see the animation sequence. Bake to control rig 2. Scroll down and expand head_ctrl, neck_01_ctrl, and neck_02_ctrl keyframes. Copy Roll, Pitch, and Yaw keyframes contained within each (hold CTRL-SHIFT while highlighting keyframe rows) Back to the "finished product" Metahuman 1. On the body, add an Additive Control Rig Layer 2. Paste keyframes to this layer 3. Bask in your glory

@terry9183 9 месяцев назад

You're a Legend! thank you for the more in-depth explanation. Just one thing i'm stuck on finding, where is the "Allow Incompatible Skeletons" option?.. i think i'm being super blind here but i just cannot see it haha Thank you again! @@emdo.unlimited555

This is a gamechanger for everyone wanting to use Metahumans in games, movies, and TV. It was so frustrating with the floating heads and not syncing with body animations, but Gabriella got everything explained clearly!

@kudlak696 23 дня назад

Yes yes for sure only in version 5.4.4 it didn't work at all and there is some problem. This Head doesn't stick to the body at all. I've watched probably the hundredth tutorial and everyone advises something, everyone is wrong and it results from this that it is an engine problem. Get it together finally. People can't work, they are losing their minds because of your mistakes.

Where do I find a video tutorial on how to import the initial setup video taken on your latest Live Link Face iOS App using an iPhone 15 Pro Max and have a solid understanding of the MetaHuman Creator latest release.

@gronklywonk 10 дней назад

Appreciate your videos Gabriella, always very thought out and informative. This one is much the same, except that this is a far less than ideal solution to use in general. I don’t understand why a layered blend per bone node in the Face Anim BP does not work properly - if it did, that would be far simpler and more modular. Also fixing things in sequencer with additive tracks and such is fine for sequences, but what if I want to blend various face animations for the player character during gameplay? I need to be able to do it through the anim graph, and Layered Blend Per Bone nodes not working correctly with MetaHuman face anim BP is really all that’s preventing it as far as I can see.

This is the best tutorial so far !!! @FeedingWolves the MHA workflow seems to work far better than arkit (at least from the test I did).

At 27.59, when replacing base skeleton the result for me is a deformed skeleton that does not function properly or join head to body. any body can help with the issue?

@beatriceresta2237 3 месяца назад

Hello thank you very much for this tutorial! I have a question, is it possible to control and manipulate the face control rig through OSC data received ?

@jonos138 7 месяцев назад

What a long winded process just to keep the head rotations when using body movement. This seriously needs streamlining. The longer the process, the more chance of mistakes.

0:30 Is the facial rig panel on the right a framed viewport, or another window where the facial controlers are available on ? The in-scenes controllers are giving me a hard time.

great thanks that helped me much specially how u easily assign head w/ body + showed how to adapt head to existing body w/ additive control rig I was searching that so long :))

@joseph.cotter 11 месяцев назад

Narrator uses the term "collapse the {x} control" when she is in fact expanding the control. This type of thing can be confusing. Otherwise it is a very good tutorial.
