Hi, I’m Simon

I’m a Motion Capture & MotionBuilder specialist. I help animators and studios go from mocap-curious to mocap-confident – helping them transform raw mocap into production-ready, life-like animations.

Over the last 20+ years I’ve helped bring hundreds of characters to life for studios like DNEG, Sony Interactive, and Centroid Motion Capture – now I teach those same MotionBuilder and mocap workflows through tutorials, courses and training.

ENJOYING THESE TUTORIALS?

Mocappys is where I share 20+ years of MotionBuilder and mocap experience – in-depth guides that many people use in real productions.

If something here has helped your project or workflow, you can say thanks by buying me a coffee – a small one-off contribution that helps support the site.

Totally optional, but genuinely appreciated – all the content stays free.
