00:02Hello and welcome. Welcome to a young lady. Her name is Mei Ling. She's age 33 and before I go
00:09any further, I will tell you she's not real.
00:14So if you're going to click on that button or you're going to leave the text message saying, oh, that's
00:19a little bit inappropriate.
00:21First of all, let me explain to you. The character is nothing more than a colour on the screen. So
00:28if you take a paintbrush and draw it on the screen, yep, that's what she is.
00:32And not only is she that, if you go here and I'll zoom in for you, you can see that
00:38she's a big pile of dots on the screen.
00:40You know, like the dot to dot, like pencil marks, she's that. And of course, you turn the dot into
00:47a triangle.
00:48You turn the triangle into a square. And you turn the square into a box. And of course, you can
00:55turn the box into a cylinder.
00:58And you can turn that or the box into a character. So it's up to you, don't matter if it's
01:03a character, it doesn't matter if it's a cat, a dog, a goldfish or a crocodile.
01:08It's entirely up to you. Anyway, this is mainly content. I'll show you everything from you remapping, texturing and animating.
01:16I also show you how to make a skeleton for your character, just in case you want to make your
01:20character unique to that specific person or that specific character, that specific avatar.
01:29Let's supposing you look at my characters. And let's supposing you don't want it as a game character. I think,
01:35OK, what are you looking for?
01:38I think, OK, quite a great. Let's supposing you want a pen pal. I think, what? Oh yeah. Now, how
01:45about an AI that you control?
01:49Thinking, what? Oh yeah. A different type of AI. I'm not actually talking about the proper actual, like, what you
01:58see out there. Not like that. This is different. This is personal, in your pocket, mobile AI.
02:05So, you can have a conversation with the actual character. And depending on what you add to the character. And
02:16it won't be me who's adding it to the character.
02:20It'll be up to you to download the content from me. And I will tell you exactly what the piece
02:26of software does. And of course, you can add it to the character.
02:30So, if you want to sit down and say, hello, Mei-Ling. Mei-Ling waits around and say, hello. Let's
02:36say, Roger, Kenny, Samantha, Rachel, whoever you are.
02:40And she will know who you are. Because you obviously need to obviously tell her, if you want to do
02:47this, give her a name. It can be absolutely any name you want.
02:54Realistically, it's entirely to you. As I said, I'll be showing you all that later on. At the moment, as
02:59I said, I'm trying to keep it plain, easy and simple.
03:02As I said, this is Mei-Ling. I'm trying to get your interest in the content. Now, another thing you
03:08can do with my content.
03:09Because it's 110% free of charge, you can go on the internet, you can download trees, bushes, flowers and
03:17everything else.
03:17And drop it in the game world. I apologize for that. Okay, you can drop it in the game world.
03:22Now, it's pretty good. You can use it in a render. Sometimes. Because it's copyright. Sometimes.
03:28Now, sometimes you can't put the assets into a game. It's not allowed. You need a license.
03:36Okay, as I said, you can't 3D print the object. I'm thinking, okay, you see my character here, Mei-Ling
03:43specifically.
03:44I'm thinking, okay, Mei-Ling has got a full body. That's what she's got. She's an adult. That's who she
03:50is.
03:50Okay, she's made for a particular type of website. I've slightly changed her for my Red Band Alley.
03:57But it's the same character, the same skeleton. Okay, now her animations are almost completely 110% realistic.
04:09Just so you understand that. When you see my animations over in Red Band Alley, I think, well, you don't
04:14really know too much about animating.
04:16Yeah, that's because I want you to start from the beginning. So, I will show you how to make a
04:22skeleton for the body.
04:24I will show you how to animate it, how to move it, how to twist it, how to bend it,
04:28how to shape it.
04:29And then, of course, later on, if you want to give your character, your big pile of paint on the
04:35screen, a little bit more life, you can do that.
04:38And you see, as I twist her, look, you see how it looks like she's moving her eyes. Look.
04:45She's not moving her eyes. Because she's got no arms, she's got no body, and she's got no eyes.
04:51And she's got no tongue, she's got no teeth. Just so you understand that.
04:56All the body parts are separate. She's like a modular character.
05:00So you can come along and you can, yeah, you can put this arm on it, you can put that
05:03arm on it, you can connect her in all different ways.
05:07As I say, you have to wait for the assets until I share it. As I say, some assets are
05:11already made, some assets are not made.
05:13As I say, this is my introduction to me, I don't want to make a big long video. As I
05:17say, I want to show you a new map, texture and animate.
05:20And I'll also show you a little bit of how to make a game over in a real engine, just
05:26in case you're interested.
05:27Of course, I ain't no expert when it comes to games. I'm starting that fresh myself.
05:32So of course, yeah, I've got a lot of content to go into my game world. I've got a good
05:37idea for the game.
05:39And I've assembled quite a lot of the game already.
05:44But I haven't made a demo for you yet. Not yet. As I say, I'm still trying to do my
05:50content.
05:51So if you like it, you like it. If you follow me, you follow her. If you don't, you don't.
05:55As I say, I have a different type of content for different type of people in a different type of
05:59world.
06:00In a different kind of scenario.
06:02So as I say, my content, you can 3D print it if you've got a 3D printer.
06:07You can just basically click on her and say, print her out. And out she will come.
06:12I mean, how great is that?
06:15Yeah, like some artists, they like to make a bus.
06:19Or whatever they call that. And stick it on, let's say, like a pedestal.
06:23On a pillar, basically.
06:25Yeah, you can also do that. If you want to.
06:28So if you basically 3D print that. And if you were to do that.
06:33As I say, you don't have to do that.
06:34But I'm saying, if you were to, let's say, download this part.
06:37With her eyes and whatever else. Her arms.
06:40Then, of course, maybe you don't want the arms.
06:42Obviously, you'll want the eyes.
06:43And then, of course, maybe you don't really need the eyes either.
06:46So as I say, you can basically 3D print it.
06:48And then you can actually, you know, stick it on the table.
06:51And say, actually, you know what? She looks pretty great.
06:53And if you look at her, I can't turn her too much.
06:56Just in case you do consider it inappropriate.
06:59As I say, she's got most of the features.
07:01Okay? Yeah.
07:03She can do with, say look, adding a few wrinkles.
07:06Here, there and everywhere.
07:08Yeah.
07:09That is all to do with the texture on the character.
07:12But of course, it's not all about the texture.
07:15It's all about the features on the character.
07:19So Mei Ling is all about the shape of the body.
07:22That's it. Nothing else.
07:24Okay?
07:24It's not about how many wrinkles you've got.
07:27How many creases you've got.
07:29It's not about that yet.
07:31Later on, maybe.
07:33Anyway, as you say, thumbs up, thumbs down, subscribe, subscribe.
