design for tracking marker

arm_raise_test_footage

Ill use this footage as a test for mo cap tracking


test_two_mo_cap_green_screen_ruff_edit

I'll have to shoot this again as the yellow t-shirt is very hard to key...I can however use this as a test



test_one_dv

here's test one to match mo-cap, unfortunately we learned that we needed tracking markers down the spine as it is impossible to export the data

Test_two

I have shot my second test and believe it could be good enough to use.....very successful, should have an edit in a few days!!!

Test_one_problem

I found that the first test didn't have enough tracking point to build a skeleton but the actual capture worked very well in terms of accuracy.

Production_Quality

Unfortunately The AIB cannot fund the film stock and telecine.

The cost of 30mins (1200ft) low grain stock+telecine cost £540.

The SDX DVCPRO 900 has a compression of 4:2:2 which would be good enough to shoot on.
