oh I know as it stands now 3d scans and mocap are totally ununseable as raw data. Mocap curves have to be optimized and 3d scans are really just modeling reference but that I know. you guys are talking about what's going on now, I was questioning 10 years into the future.
the question is rather, who is not working with 3d scanning by now? my experience, besides hero characters which are supposed to look like this or that concept, every realistic production we worked on lately is heavily scanning based.
The future is coming along great boys. https://img-9gag-fun.9cache.com/photo/a47vMep_460svvp9.webm There was also this video feature that was shown months ago about actually scanning live action MOIVING scenes into a complete 3D scenes. I really wonder how far and fast this will develop in the next couple of years.
