What is ODD Stage?
ODD Stage is single-camera motion capture software by ODD Heron. It turns video of a body performance into 3D motion, with character import, skeleton mapping, retargeting, and export in one local workflow. ODD Stage is in development; join the waitlist for launch updates.
Does ODD Stage process my footage locally?
Yes. Motion processing runs on your own computer, and your footage stays local during processing. You do not need to upload your capture footage to a cloud processing service.
What does bring your own hardware mean?
Bring your own hardware (BYOH) means using your own camera and computer. ODD Stage works from single-camera video without a motion capture suit, markers, or a multi-camera capture volume. Detailed hardware requirements will be shared before launch.
Are there credits or capture limits?
ODD Stage has no per-capture credits or limits on the number of captures you create. Your computer does the processing. Planned access options are a perpetual license or a subscription; pricing will be announced at launch.
Explore the planned licensesCan I import and retarget to my own character?
Yes. Import your humanoid character, use automatic bone mapping, review uncertain matches, and adjust the assignments. Retarget your captured performance to your character and review the motion before exporting.
See character mapping and retargetingCan I choose the export frame rate?
Yes. Choose the frames per second (FPS) your project needs and export the motion at that frame rate for your animation workflow.
Does ODD Stage include face capture and an editor?
Body capture from single-camera video is the core workflow. Face capture and the non-destructive editor are coming soon and remain in development. They are shown as upcoming features rather than available tools.
