Does this run in my browser?
Yes. Open the browser animation studio for Motion, Face, Voice and guided Animal capture, character preview, editable controls and animation exports. Browser source files are uploaded privately for duration checks and audio processing, then removed. Private saved takes are retained for seven days, with 2 GB of storage per account. The optional Windows desktop tools keep source files on your computer.
What does the free plan include?
Try video and audio imports in all four browser studios, including guided Animal capture, or use the desktop tools, up to 15 seconds per clip. No card is needed. The $4.99 monthly plan raises that limit to 30 seconds per clip.
What changes with Full Studio?
You get full studio access during your paid monthly billing period, including live camera or microphone recording. The browser supports human takes up to 30 minutes; guided Animal takes support up to ten minutes within technical limits. Access is checked again during processing and when new exports are created.
Will this work with my character?
Your character needs working facial morphs or wired facial-bone controls, and a weighted body rig for body retargeting. The included picture-led guide explains compatible morph names, User Data, rig wiring and skin weights.
What do I need to install?
Use a current Chrome or Edge browser with hardware acceleration for the website; no app installation is needed for browser capture. The optional desktop tools are tested with Cinema 4D R26 on Windows. Motion Studio and the video-engine setup use Python 3.10. The optional Voice converter runs without a separate Python or Cinema 4D installation. Follow each product’s setup instructions.
Can I cancel my membership?
Yes. Open Manage billing from your studio account to change or cancel the membership. Cancellation at the end of the billing period preserves your paid access until that period ends. Your already baked animation remains yours.
