Building the characters of The Garfield Movie with Ziva Real Time
Briefly

"Our goal was to provide animation with a fast rig that had high degrees of volume preservation as well as overall deformation. We felt that the traditional workflow would struggle with the broad volumes of our characters... Using Ziva Real Time was the solution to this problem."
"Ziva RT is a machine learning tool that outputs a geometry deformer that runs in real-time. This allowed us to provide the animation team with a rig that behaved as though it had bones and flesh with natural sliding skin."
"Following the Ziva RT workflow ultimately saved the artists time by avoiding manually sculpting correctives, and allowed us to iterate quickly on sim setups to improve results."
