Intro to MetaHuman in Unreal Engine & Houdini KineFX for Animation

In this video, I'll go over some basics of Epic Games' MetaHumans, more of an introduction showcasing the features and existing products that augment the MetaHuman animation for ease of use and performance. I start off by showcasing a short animation video I did using MetaHumans and breakdown on how I did it and what tools I used. This is where I feel Unreal Engine and Houdini will shine when used together.
