Don't Break Your Metahuman Skeletons

Welcome to the Pixel Prof channel, a channel focused on sharing how Unreal Engine and related tools and technologies can be leveraged in Animation, Motion Capture and Virtual Production. My name is Nick Jushchyshyn, and for over 20 years I've worked professionally in digital visual effects for feature films, television, advertising, and now, in the role of university professor and authorized instructor partner with Epic Games, directing the Digital Media & Virtual Production program at Drexel University. The success I've found in this career is very much thanks to the advice and guidance of generous mentors I've encountered along the way. Following in their tradition, I'm sharing what I can on this channel as an ongoing resource for my students, alumni and other professionals (and aspiring professionals), interested in learning more about how to grow and improve their creative work within the Unreal Engine ecosystem.

Video Description
This video shows why it's important to avoid setting the retargeting mode of the metahuman skeleton joints to "Skeleton" mode. There are quite a few videos on YouTube recommending doing this to fix things like fingers and stretching and squashing when using retargeted animations, but these uses are generally addressed today by using Unreal 5's new IK Retargeting features.
