Part 3 of the Unreal Layered Recording tutorial covers using take recorder's "from actor" option to record a character. This part references the previous tutorial a lot, so you should watch that first.    • Take recorder layered recording for Virtua...   Layered recording lets you record one character's motion and voice, then come back and record a second character while the first one is playing back.

Also in this part I show how to fix distortions in the metahuman body that may happen when characters are recorded this way, this is a bug that may be fixed in the future.

Part 4 of this series will be doing face and full body capture using iPhone and a Perception Neuron Studio mocap suit.

There are some unfortunate bugs and inconvenient workflow problems in 4.26 for doing this, 4.27 is expected to be an improvement but isn't available yet.

You can get the free editing software I use here https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/prod... this is a film studio quality package. It's easy to learn basic editing on this and it has a ton of extra features when you get more experienced.

To see a lot of the tools and gadgets I use all in one place, check out my page on Amazon. Check back often as I'm still building the page. As an amazon affiliate I earn a little money to support the channel if you order from these amazon links, there is no extra cost to you. Some things may be cheaper in local stores.
