Learn Performance Capture from the Pros

Join the Mocap Vaults family and get real-world training from specialists

Mocap shoot in action

Taught by Active Professionals

  • Train with specialists currently working on major productions, bringing fresh insights and established skillsets from today's most innovative projects

  • Over more than a decade we have proven that the backbone of mocap mastery is building skills in carefully planned steps - starting with the foundations, our Intro, and then moving into medium specific techniques and challenges with Heroes and Monsters one and two and Pure Imagination, finishing with Cinematics.

    Each class must be taken in sequential order as one class is the foundation for the next in the series.

    The final syllabus class - Cinematics - is where we record video of you doing scenes and a monologue in the mocap volume, with you in a mocap suit. Our process helps guarantee that you will give a performance you will be proud to share, with a training that is globally recognized in the industry.

Career Results and ongoing development

  • Whether it’s close quarter battle, Audition Technique, or Arm Extensions - we run classes tailored to the territory you are in - which you can start taking once you have completed the “intro” class of the Syllabus.

  • Our graduates don't just learn and leave—they join a community that celebrates successes and supports career growth long after the syllabus ends - helping to build the community and the classes that we teach.

Global Community - Local connections

  • Join the Mocap Vaults family across four countries. Connect with fellow actors locally and build international industry relationships through regional discord chapters, run by alumni. This family knows no borders.

  • We do our best to put out quarterly reports with insider knowledge (Within our NDA’s) for each of the territories we operate in.
