Community Tutorial: From Phone Mocap to Cinematic Dialogue in Unreal Engine 5

This tutorial explores a lightweight workflow for creating cinematic dialogue scenes in Unreal Engine 5.6 using just a phone and a simple home setup.

The breakdown covers the full pipeline behind the scene, including:
• MetaHuman creation and customization
• Live Link Face facial capture
• Video-based body mocap
• Animation retargeting and cleanup
• Sequencer-based cinematic polish

Rather than focusing on a perfect production pipeline, this tutorial shares practical insights, lessons learned, and workflow decisions that helped bridge the gap between lightweight capture methods and more cinematic results.
