MotionMuse

MotionMuse gives you full control of the character by implementing the state of the art Inverse Kinematics solver. No rigging of the character is required as the bone hierarchy itself is used to articulate complex character movements. The user can quickly move the entire or part of the body, with on the fly control of which body parts to affect. Multi-Character IK enables artists to articulate a large number of characters on the fly for easy inter-character interactions.

Spline based Sketching is an easy way to pose a chain of joints quickly by simply drawing on top of them. The Sketch can be adjusted on the fly to precisely pose the underlying joints and bones. Tangents and control points can be adjusted for exact positioning. Our Sketching supports stylus and tablet devices to get the most out of your vision.

A fully featured Curve Editor allows the user to accurately control the interpolation between multiple key frames. With support for multiple types of interpolation curves and different types of tangents, you can be assured to get the exact repeatability and reliability needed for precise motion control. Easy copy / pasting of keys and free control of each independent key makes this one of the easiest curve editor to use.

Diminishing the gap between 2D and 3D animation is inline with our vision of uncluttering the Animation process. We achieve this by implementing a Media Overlay system. The artist can create image overlays at multiple time frames and draw on top of them using mouse / pen tablet devices, or can load existing images or videos. By matching the underlying character to multiple image overlays or video overlays the artist can quickly achieve his / her animated vision.
