From Tic Tock Video to 3D Animation: A Step-by-Step Guide

In today's digital age, creating captivating 3D character animations has never been easier, thanks to AI-powered motion capture technology. Imagine being able to animate any 3D character in under 10 minutes for free, just like turning Spider Gwen into a belly dancer. In this blog post, we will walk you through the process of transforming a TikTok video into a mesmerizing 3D animation using Rococo Studio and Mixamo.

Step 1: Selecting and Processing the Video

The journey begins by choosing a TikTok video that inspires you. Once you've found the perfect clip, it's time to head over to Rococo Studio. Create a new scene, import your video, and with just a few clicks, watch as your video transforms into a captivating animation. The processing time typically takes around two minutes, so sit back and relax.

Step 2: Exporting Animation to Mixamo

After the animation is processed, export it to Mixamo, an online platform for rigging and animating 3D characters. Upload your 3D character model, rig it using Mixamo's tools, and seamlessly transfer the animation data from Rococo Studio to your character. With everything in place, export the animation clips for the next step.

Step 3: Rigging and Animation Transfer

To bring your animation to life, you'll need to use Blender and the Rococo add-on. Install the add-on, import your 3D character model in a T-pose, and then add the animation data exported from Rococo. By using the Rococo add-on's retargeting feature, you can smoothly transfer the dance animation onto your character.

Conclusion

And there you have it! In just a few simple steps, you've transformed a TikTok video into a stunning 3D animation ready to be used in your projects. The seamless integration of Rococo Studio, Mixamo, and Blender has made the process quick, easy, and free.
