Hi
This project started roughly 3 years ago, originally was meant to be just a single image, but during its development it just got bigger!
Long time ago , A favourite music group of mine, Perfume released a mocap session of their dance routines.

This happen around 2012 and I've just had the files and really wanted to use them.
When I was developing the modelling of Ulala, the character featured in the video I started to have the idea of using that motion capture on her.
So I've had to learn Motion builder and transfer the data into a Human IK, at the type the file formats where .bvh.
This video project is a one-man-band love project.
I did everything except modelling the spaceship and Dj deck, as they were models I bought .
The process was heavy documented on a dedicated Instagram page
During the process, I've improved myself how to manage a full CG project
