DeepMotion Animate 3D vs Move One

DeepMotion Animate 3D turns video into 3D animation using markerless AI motion capture. It tracks body movement, facial expressions and hand gestures, including multiple subjects—up to eight people in a single video. Users can choose default characters, upload FBX, GLB or VRM characters, or create avatars with Ready Player Me and Avaturn. Tools include physics simulation, foot locking, hand-to-ground contact, motion smoothing and a Rotoscope Pose Editor. The service accepts MP4, MOV and AVI video; exports include FBX, BVH, MP4 and GLB, with GLB export available for custom characters. One credit covers one second of animation or one 3D pose; face and hand tracking each add 0.5 credit per second or pose. Monthly credits reset without carrying forward. The free account is for personal, non-commercial use; licensed animation requires a premium subscription. The maker says uploaded videos are private to the account holder. An API and real-time SDK are available, with pricing by contacting sales.

Move One is a single-camera iPhone motion-capture app for creating 3D animations from video. Move.ai describes the process as AI-powered, markerless capture for studios and creators. Credits convert 2D footage into 3D motion data: Gen 1 uses one credit per person-second and Gen 2 uses two. The free plan includes 30 one-time credits that do not expire and permits videos up to 30 seconds; paid plans allow 60-second videos. Listed exports are FBX, USDC, BLEND, USDZ, MP4, and biomechanics data, while MP4, MOV, and AVI uploads up to 1GB are supported. Biomechanics output includes per-frame joint positions, rotations, torques, and reaction forces. A Chrome extension sends capture data to a PC, and a Blender plugin imports animations, currently supporting FBX only. Documentation covers NVIDIA Omniverse, Unreal Engine, Unity, Maya, and Cinema 4D. Plans start at $18 a month, billed $18/month plus VAT.
