Someone has made a crypto scam token associated with the @freemocap project - WE DO NOT ENDORSE THAT PROJECT AND DO NOT CONSENT TO HAVING OUR NAME ASSOCIATED WITH IT.

Check out these awesome clips from @ajc27!
We've been working on adapting his @Blender add-on so that this type of @UnrealEngine /@unity (etc) compatible FBX files are a standard output of the @freemocap pipeline!

TIL that @GitHub has added a new feature to GitHub-Flavored Markdown to adapt blockquotes to Notes and Warnings (also known as "admonitions")
Syntax is super simple:
> **Note**
> This is a note
> **Warning**
> This is a warning

Local vs parent space, understanding this in Blender helps make animators using the graph editor happy #rigtip

Yes please! We're building a free open source markerless motion capture system that uses standard cheapo webcams!
We're working on our automated Blender output and I'd love to hear your advice! Join the discord,if you want to join the fun!

Got a decent script to auto-bind `freemocap` #motioncapture data to a @Blender #rigify 'human meta-rig`
Work in progress, but promising!

Look I know the Musk drama is hard to look away from, but here are one-click email templates in various languages asking your officials to stop executions in Iran. This type of action has legitimately helped in the past regarding unjust Iranian executions. linktr.ee/persianswithpurpos…

I think I'm going to stream later today from ~3pm-5pm (Eastern US) twitch.tv/freemocap
Among other things, I'll look at data recorded in a live demo at the NEUrons club meeting✨

I (@jonmatthis) will be making a presentation about the #freemocap project this evening (Nov 9th) at 8pm (Eastern US time). Here's the Zoom link (I'll try to get it on YouTube later): northeastern.zoom.us/j/95667…
And here's the announcement on their Instagram: instagram.com/p/CklR-N6tHZX/

Here's a very rough tutorial/walkthrough!
Its mostly brain dump to get some info about how to setup and record a #freemocap session into the world. We'll use this video as a reference and starting point as we build our docs

Hello! I'm posting this from freemocapfostodon.org !
It's, like, a #foss oriented #mastodon server :D
...presumably this post is going to get auto-re-posted to the @[email protected] #twitter account because I linked the accounts via (1/2)

This book should be required reading for anyone working in #opensource #software development.
Reading it made me feel like Lauren Hill in `Killing Me Softly`
It was like "Ah yes! Those are, in fact, all of my challenges, fears, and concerns😅"
(and there's an audiobook!)
Hi I wrote a book!
It's called Working in Public, and it's the story of modern open source and its implications for online communities and the creator economy.
Now available for pre-order on Amazon: amazon.com/dp/0578675862/

Imagine Steph Curry & the entire starting lineup of the Warriors hanging from your Achilles tendon.
That's the force borne by your Achilles when you go for a run. Several body weights of force. On every running step you take.
Crazy, right? #biomechanics

RE: the upcoming tutorial referenced yesterday -
Here's a shot of a planning board roughing out topics to cover in the upcoming tutorial and a link to our prep notes if you're into that

Just finished recording a rough-cut walk-through/tutorial with @neonexdeath - I think it will really demystify the process of recording #freemocap videos.
It will be a bit rough, but I'm excited to get this info online so we can iterate on it as we work to build out our docs✨
