Autodesk Flow Studio, formerly Wonder Studio, is a powerful cloud-based, AI-powered 3D toolset designed to revolutionize VFX creation. It enables independent creators and professional teams to transform live-action footage into editable CG scenes without complex setups or specialized gear.
Key features include:
- Markerless AI Motion Capture: Seamlessly integrate CG characters onto live actors, capturing facial, body, and hand movements with AI. Exports motion data in USD or FBX formats with advanced character bone retargeting.
- Video to 3D Scene Technology: Convert any video sequence into a 3D-animated scene. The AI reconstructs the scene in 3D space, matching camera positions and movements relative to characters and environments, even with multiple cuts and shots.
- Individual Element Exports: Provides granular control by allowing export of specific elements like motion capture, camera track, 3D scenes, character passes, alpha masks, clean plates, and final renders.
- Automated Cloud Rendering: Increase efficiency by submitting multiple rendering jobs to the cloud, freeing up local machines for other creative tasks and accelerating delivery.
- Powerful Integrations: Ensures smooth data exchange and workflow continuity with integrated open standards like Universal Scene Description (USD) and compatibility with professional 3D tools such as Maya, Blender, and Unreal Engine.
- AI-Powered Storytelling: Built with Autodesk AI, it empowers artists to maintain creative control while accelerating workflows, focusing on intentional creation and storytelling.
Flow Studio aims to make high-end VFX accessible, supporting artists by automating tedious tasks and providing editable, directable AI tools. It offers various tiers, including a free option, to suit different creative needs and scales, from individual projects to studio-level productions.
