FREE TRAINING IN MOTION CAPTURE
Free motion capture training for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing after which the best of the best will be offered a job.
Did you know that in the Witcher video game Geralt of Rivia uses sign language to cast the AXII sign? He does it in ASL (American Sign Language). And can people who use PJM (Polish Sign Language) work in game-dev on a daily basis? “The answer is a resounding yes!”, says Paweł Potakowski, head of the Barrier-Free Workspace Agency (www.pracabezbarier.eu), and the originator of this unique project.
“Until 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, July 22, recruitment is open for a free motion-capture training course that will allow the Deaf and hard-of-hearing people to enter the career path of game production and 3D animation processing.
Best of the best will be offered a job as Junior Motion Capture Editor. The Motion Capture Editor is responsible for translating high-quality data extracted from motion capture recordings of actors into character animation in a 3D environment.
The Motion Capture Editor works mainly on mocap data from motion capture sessions. This data is reconstructed, labeled, cleared, and then exported according to specifications, and finally retargeted into target 3D models using specialised tools designed for this purpose.
The course will last for 2 weeks (we start on Monday, July 26, 2021) and will be held in an intensive online boot camp format (training sessions from 5 pm to 8 pm, followed by tasks to be completed on your own). We are looking for people who are meticulous, creative, experienced in working with computers and preferably 3D graphics.
