Wow, thanks Bruce for your incredible work! Mojo has converted Bruce's bvhs into Poser-friendly bvh. The dataset is here. Thanks Mojo! Jennifer Sumbu Longe has converted our data, and mocapclub's, into six other formats: .dae (Collada), .mb (Maya), .max (3ds Max), .vns (iClone), .bvh (iClone), and .fbx (Motion Builder, Maya, 3d Max, Modo,...). The data is hosted at The Trailers' Park. Thanks for all the hard work, Jen! (You may need to scroll to the right to see the data.) IAFilm Productions at the Manukau Institute of Technology is using our mocap in short films. They have converted some clips to Carrara NLA. Their work is here.
