Learn how to how to record your own Motion Capture data for Cinema 4D with this tutorial by Leigh Williamson (School of Motion).

What if you needed a very specific movement for a project? What if you wanted to motion capture your own movements? Do you need to rent one of those ping-pong ball suits?! I was just as curious as you so I took some time to research and test a DIY motion capture system that can be imported into Cinema 4D.
