How You Can Create a 3D Clone!

Using photogrammetry we create a realistic CGI clone of our friend Aleks. We utilize photoscanning techniques, Z-Brush, Mudbox, Reality Capture and more in this VFX Breakdown / Tutorial.

This is a re-upload, we had to fix a few typos. Follow Mike on Instagram (you can find him now!) @Mike_Smithstagram

There's a cool technique for capturing those skin maps directly from the actor. I definitely want to see if we can accomplish that, would definitely bring the realism to a whole new level

0:27 Heck yeah! TRON: Legacy! I'm so excited to see if my suggestion made it in! If you do it though, make sure to ask(force) David to do a shot where someone derezzes.

Sorry guys, but i can hardly call this video, a tutorial, it is more like quick overview of few pretty well known programs. As for creating fast cgi clone with photorealistic appearance, all you need today is CC3 (Character Creator 3 from reallusion with Headshot plugin) 5 to 10 min of work and you will have very good photorealistic clone. But of cource as alternative you can always use this complicated process, which will work just fine but will take hours to complete, and also will require quite good knowledge of all this programs.

I would like to know more on how you got the character to be symmetrical in Zbrush?

[ginojoseph]

Very cool presentation and a lot of information thank you very much for posting

What's the point of creating in zBrush from scratch when there are 3D scanning programs?

[authentic]

Know what would be cool? If you can sculpt a face and skin. Print it out! Then make the negative of the same thing print it out and apply silicone to get a realistic silicone facemask with skin texture!

I loved how you create a 3d digital clone of yourself but how we use it to replace the actor head with the digital clone that the original point

Good Job, but I not sure about the eyes! Anytime you can see the whites (sclera) of the eyes above or below the iris when they are looking forward, it makes someone look angry or crazy!
He did not look like this in the original rotation photos at the start of the video...

Hi 👋
It was awesome video tutorial.
Is this Adobe fuse software? If it is, let me know.
I have never used Adobe fuse.

[romannavratilid]

What automatic turntable did you use please?

[KRGraphicsCG]

And where do you get a turntable big enough to hold a human? Also using a single camera is HARD for capturing human faces

[chunchoe]

would be nice to know what camera settings they used and all that

[TheFalconking]

where can I see the full tutorial ? / course ?

[nocultist]

Now do the same but ony using free tools and assets.

[amarbayanenkhtuul]

hi dear, course not working, i've donated 15$ btw. Really want to watch full course pls

[anahioroz]

What for a software I need to make a clone?

[purcubo]

this model would look so much better with some subsurface scattering

[zzogo]

So if we added hair to the clone it'd look like Alex?
