We are thrilled to announce that there is a new, free online course on the Unreal Online Learning site, which is the first-ever course on facial animation. Called MetaHuman Workflows with Faceware Studio, this course was developed by Epic Games and Faceware Technologies and is designed to help animators unlock the secrets to animating realistic facial performances. Roughly 90 minutes long, the course will teach you how to use Faceware Studio and the Live Link plugin (or Live Client from Glassbox) alongside a MetaHuman inside Unreal Engine—all in real time. This is the first in what we hope to be many courses!
You’ll not only learn to refine each performance, you'll be able to recreate every nuance of a smile, frown, or arched eyebrow as you craft your most realistic digital characters yet.
For my Metahumans and facial motion workflow, I use Faceware Studio as it allows me to have both a real time and post UE workflow. –– Gabriella Krousaniotakis (aka Feeding_Wolves)
For the MetaHuman characters I tried out Faceware Studio and was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to use. The results were great. - Joe Raasch, VFX Artist, Teacher, Unreal Fellow
