I wanted it to move. That’s why animation and fabric simulation became such an essential part of the process. I captured the dance performance with motion capture, refined the animation in Cascadeur, and completed the hair and final render in Blender.</p><p style="text-align: left"></p><p style="text-align: left"><img src="https://storagefiles.clo-set.com/public/community/202504/7a516aaddb724edb9d6aa6fdd6672773/images/08e5f36c52c34c4094853c8d5ee2c601image.png" alt="08e5f36c52c34c4094853c8d5ee2c601" class="custom-image original-size" data-id="08e5f36c52c34c4094853c8d5ee2c601" data-width="1236" data-height="457"></p><div data-vimeo-video="" style="padding:56.25% 0 0 0; position:relative;"><iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/1076237242?#t=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" width="800" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write" style="position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:100%; height:100%;"></iframe></div><p style="text-align: left"></p><p style="text-align: left">The outfit was created in Marvelous Designer. It made building large-scale garment structures incredibly fast and efficient, which really helped streamline my workflow. Later on, by tweaking the simulation timing and fabric properties, I was able to achieve the kind of dynamic cloth motion I had envisioned. Honestly, this animation couldn’t have worked without MD.</p><p style="text-align: left"></p><div data-vimeo-video="" style="padding:56.25% 0 0 0; position:relative;"><iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/1076446515?#t=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" width="800" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write" style="position:absolute; top:0; left:0; width:100%; height:100%;"></iframe></div><p>The process was full of challenges and far from perfect — but I’m proud I pushed through and made it to the finish line.</p><p></p><p></p>
