Great job guys, I was waiting for this video and now I am waiting for the third too.

[jonnygrown]

awesome!!! would love to see more content related to virtual production. especially on how to do it on a budget

[samgoldwater]

It's eerie how every time I have a question the bois have answered it in a video published LIKE THAT SAME DAY 😇😎💥

[lewliteki]

You guys got me addicted to scanning people and turning them into Metahuman, and now I see this??! The journey continues 😂

[wisekhil]

I think it would've been a good idea to note Live Link is only available for Apple users with Iphone X and newer or Ipad Pro (3rd Generation or newer)

Hi! Great tutorial but I have an issue in neck movement facial expression works fine but neck is not moving.

[olliegreen]

Love the series so far! Will you have a video on creating custom hair not using the metahuman default hair styles?

[現れる奴]

Thank you for the video.
What should I do if the rotation and the direction of the head are not reflected when I play back the recorded animation in the timeline? (Sometimes the neck keeps fixed although the motion of the face is successfully reflected)

[MrMarcelomidaglia]

I can't connect my iPhone to the live link, I put the same IP, submask and router and nothing, nothing appears on the live link! Could you help me?

[a.kromatyk]

great tutorial details about solving the bugs and all. Really Appreciate it.

[alisaberi]

Hi, I added record in levelsequence but head movements not working, do you know what’s the issue?

[tastydish]

Awesome vid. In case anyone had the issue of "hey, my head movement isn't tracked!?". Don't worry, in the livelink app on your iphone, click the gear in the top left of the screen and enable ' Stream Head Rotation'. Voila babbyyy

Hey guys you are doing great stuff, making something educational with good sense of humour. I hope you get thousands of views which you deserve! Keep it up and all the best!

[danish_blends]

loved it. And subscribed 🤭 because the last sentence sounded like it was an order for me 🤣

[louisiannna]

You guys are awesome, you've earned a sub!

[isaaceddlestone]

This is really cool what you are doing I roam around in a wheelchair and i have just scanned myself so I'm going to walk around in the virtual space
I have a question for animation the app that you use Is it available on android
If not can you recommend another app

[terezaancheva]

Yesterday we create our metahuman with your first tutorial and it was great! I can send you some pictures if you want. Thank you a lot! ❤Just want to ask can we use android for this tutorial or it has to be an iPhone?

[mr_yado]

Live link is not available for android ! what can I do ?

[waqaranayat]

I have subscribed you guys to keep it up. Never stop making these types of tutorial.
