Description

Wonder Studio is an advanced AI system designed to streamline visual effects workflows. It automatically animates, lights, and composes computer-generated (CG) characters directly into live-action scenes. Users upload their CG character model and corresponding video footage; the AI then analyzes the footage to detect the actor's performance frame by frame.

The system transfers this detected performance to the CG character, handling complex tasks such as motion capture, camera tracking, lighting synchronization, and final composition without requiring traditional 3D software or specialized hardware. This allows VFX artists and filmmakers to significantly reduce manual compositing work, automating an estimated 80-90% of the process and freeing them up to focus on creative aspects.
