While Nick and John talk about movies & shows a lot on the channel -- their backgrounds are in the Visual Effects & Animation industry...and like to keep up on developments!

Requiring a significant number of artists and time, 3D animation and its accompanying departments typically remain out of reach for small groups or individuals. Companies like Reallusion are out to change that though, by lowering the technical threshold and simplifying the typically-complex visual effects pipeline.

Having been a regular user of their software since 2015 -- beginning when iClone 6 was still in beta, John excitedly hops into the new iterations of their 3D software: Character Creator 4 and iClone 8. Most of what is discussed in this video revolves around features that were already existing, but the simplicity in which it all occurs in this "overview" will hopefully be fun to view.

More videos are likely incoming, both here on AsArt as well as sister-channel Johnny HowTo:

Check out the software on Reallusion's site -- where there's a horde of tutorial and information to help get you started...
