Kojey Radical - Good | Unknown Realities
Full avatar creation of Kojey Radical
Overview
Collaborating with the visionary team at Golgotha offered an exciting opportunity to explore the intersection of music and digital art. The goal was to translate the raw energy and emotion of Kojey Radical’s performance into a digital realm, requiring a seamless blend of technical precision and artistic sensitivity.
It was a privilege to work with the data captured from the Artist and Performer, refining every nuance to ensure the Digital Double felt authentic and alive. From the initial Motion Capture processing to the final Animation polish, supporting the director's surreal concept and preparing the assets for Unreal Engine integration was a highlight for our team.
Project Experience
Motion Capture Processing:
Processing the raw motion xapture data for the Golgotha Music Video required a delicate touch to ensure the digital character moved naturally within the Unreal Engine environment. Working closely with the technical team, we focused on retargeting and validating the performance data against reference plates to maintain the integrity of the original capture.
Performance & Lip Sync:
Capturing the intensity of Kojey Radical’s delivery was paramount, and we dedicated significant effort to high-fidelity facial Animation and precise lip sync. By focusing on the Artist and Performer's unique expressions - from subtle eye movements to dynamic vocal delivery - we helped preserve the emotional weight of the track.
Visual Impact:
The final visual output demonstrates how a high-quality digital double can elevate storytelling without overshadowing the human element of the music. Contributing to this surreal aesthetic allowed the Golgotha Music Video to achieve a distinctive look that blurs the lines between reality and simulation through expert grooming and look development.
Mimic’s Contribution
Full Character Development
We had the privilege of managing the full character pipeline, including detailed modeling, hair grooming, and look development. Our goal was to ensure the digital avatar maintained a strict, photorealistic likeness to the Artist and Performer, serving as a perfect vessel for the music's narrative.
Motion Capture
To preserve the authenticity of the original shoot, our team handled the processing and retargeting of the raw performance data. We worked to ensure every movement captured on set was accurately translated onto the digital rig, maintaining the fluidity and weight of the live performance.
Animation
Supporting the surreal visual style required extensive animation refinement. We delivered high-fidelity facial animation and body cleanup, ensuring accurate lip sync and correcting interactions to prepare the character for seamless cloth simulation and final rendering.
