NEW Reallusion iClone 7
Virtual Production with Cinematic Visuals & Expert Animation
“A Tour de Force that is Unmatched in the Industry” Jeff Jasper - Oscar-winning team member/FX Supervisor ‘Interstellar’
07-21-17 - San Jose, CA - Reallusion releases iClone 7, the biggest update ever in the iClone
real-time 3D evolution. This giant leap empowers iClone users with the latest PBR/GI visuals,
unlimited creation for 3D characters, professional animation for morph and curve editing, real
camera system, as well as several significant technology integrations with industry leaders.
iClone 7 is now a virtual production platform with community inclusive tools and massive
aggregation of real-time content, empowering indie filmmakers, pro studio crews, previs / VFX
teams, writers, directors, animators, advertisers and anyone that wishes to quickly turn their
vision into a reality.
Comparing to game engines enhanced with cinematic timelines, iClone 7 is much easier to start
or include into an existing production pipeline as there is no need to have specific game
development knowledge or coding capabilities.

Intuitive Character Creation
Elaborate character design tools with a workflow that capitalizes on speed and quality,
combined with animation-ready rigging to immediately enliven character creations with motions,
facial animation, and lip-sync. Generate unlimited character styles with high-detail visual quality
via face and body morphs, PBR dynamic materials, and layers of fashion.
Facial Animation Rig
Create vivid facial animations with audio lip-sync and puppet emotive expressions with motion
key editing. The amount of facial morphs has now doubled from 30 to 60, giving you unmatched
facial precision for mouth, cheek, eye, and other facial feature animation. iClone 7’s facial
architecture also meets professional face tracking specifications, opening a new door for real-
time facial mocap!
Motion Layer Editing
Instantly animate any character with intuitive animation tools that record face and body
animation with a unique puppeteering engine. Freely control body parts with HumanIK, and use
motion layer editing to quickly fine-tune characteristics of your animation.
Dynamic prop animations utilize industry-leading NVIDIA PhysX for natural rigid body
dynamics and soft cloth simulations. Morphs and blend shapes expand your options for
animating both characters and props, while a new and long-awaited Curve Editor now allows
you to fine-tune motions for dynamic and exaggerated motions.
Morph Animation
Achieve dynamic and organic animation performance with a series of morphs added to props or
skin-bone characters. This is a simple technique that adds incredible performance enhancing
animation options that can be keyed and controlled inside iClone 7. The Morph Manager edits
morph groups from a hierarchical model, and you can import OBJ morphs from 3D modeling or
sculpting tools. Link selected morphs to adjust them individually using the iClone 7 Morph
Manage interface. All imported blend shapes are available in the timeline with individual morph
tracks. You can set keys and tweak values for each morph track in order to achieve organic
movements between morphs.
● Character Morph Animation: Body morphs can be applied to exaggerate a character’s
secondary actions.
● Prop Morph Animation: Props with several morph alternatives can turn a simple shape
into a lively actor.
Global Illumination, NVIDIA VXGI
Utilizing NVIDIA’s leading real-time VXGI (Voxel Cone Tracing technology), iClone 7 greatly
enhances visual realism by integrating secondary light reflections over diffuse and specular
surfaces. Users can quickly and easily level-up their existing projects to achieve superbly-fine
video renders in a fraction of the time, even when using slower GPU systems.
GI for Realistic Interiors and Architectural Visualization
GI for Exteriors and Landscape Environments
Physically-based Rendering (PBR)
iClone 7 introduces PBR as the new real-time renderer for iClone users. Not only does it deliver
amazingly realistic visuals, but it also serves as the new material content standard that helps
maintain a consistent look between iClone 7, 3D game engines, and popular PBR design
applications like Substance Painter.
Custom Shaders: LUT, +HBAO, Shadow Map
In order to harness the ever-increasing visual potential of rapidly growing real-time GPU
technologies, the iClone team has re-engineered iClone 7’s render core, aiming to make it
compatible with industry standard shader languages. By utilizing this new Custom Shader
architecture, iClone 7 has enriched its rendering capabilities with LUT color grading, shadow
matte to turn any mesh into a shadow capture for professional compositing, and HBAO+ for
increased sharpness and more precise AO range control.
Animated LUT Effects for Film Style or Timelapse
Virtual Production & Direction
Produce professional shots in real-time, using industry-standard iClone cameras like Alexa,
Red, Canon, and more! Use iClone 7 for all your virtual production requirements including
previz, and techviz; and take advantage of the new 1:1 seamless camera pipeline compatibility
with the ability to import or export cameras via FBX.
Oscar & BAFTA winning FX Supervisor on iClone 7
“iClone 7 represents a huge
leap in features that take
iClone to a whole new level
for professional production
workflows. Studios have
long dreamed of an
animation platform with
integrated performance
capture, procedural
animation and pipeline
scripting in a package that
also delivers stunning visual
quality in real-time. Add in
flexible integration with 3rd
party software and game
engines and you have a tour
de force that is unmatched in
the industry. Delivering on
features like realtime GI with reflections, full PBR workflow and viewport rendering, HBAO+ and
Shadow Mattes all bring the level of realism to the render to unprecedented levels.”
-Jeff Jasper, Oscar winning team for Interstellar as a digital FX supervisor for New Deal Studios
