ANIMATION, WITH A HUMAN TOUCH IN DEVELOPMENT
Move a pose.
Shape the motion.
Grab a joint. Give it direction.
Let the edit flow through the frames around it.
Echo Pose brings hands-on pose and motion editing into your animation workflow.

THE CHARACTER STUDIES01 — 03
Small edits. Big personality.Explore the motion studies
KITE / MICA / ROOKORIGINAL CHARACTERS · RENDERED IN BLENDER
Built for the way you see motion.
UNREAL ENGINE PrototypeBLENDER Prototype
01 / IN ACTION
A small gesture.
A whole new movement.
See the pose, the edit, and the result.
Short studies make the moving parts visible.
BLENDER ADD-ON · ORIGINAL CHARACTER
One drag, through the motion.
Our original Kite character in the actual Blender add-on. A pelvis drag spreads through the blend range while locked feet keep their steps.
Actual Blender host capture driven by scripted keyboard and mouse input. Original Kite geometry. Edited capture sequence with silent playback; not a productivity benchmark.
02 / THE WORKFLOW
Think in motion.
Work directly on the pose.
Choose what changes.
Protect what already works.
Make your move.
Translate or rotate the joint. Set a blend interval and falloff so the edit flows into nearby frames.
Play it back.
Review the result. Commit the edit, undo it, or try again. Your original motion remains the starting point.
03 / ORIGINAL CHARACTER STUDIES
A little character
goes a long way.
Meet Kite, Mica, and Rook.
Three original designs. Room to move.
01 / THE EXPLORER
Kite
Amber armor, a bright visor, and a pose ready for the next step.
02 / THE OPTIMIST
Mica
A taller silhouette, soft shell details, and a friendly reach.
03 / THE STEADY ONE
Rook
Compact proportions, solid plates, and plenty of personality.
Rook / Lower the pose
An actual Echo Pose core edit, rendered on an original character. A programmatic demonstration, not a recording of host UI.
Kite / Change the reach
Before, edit, and playback of a core-driven reach. Original geometry and an authored test motion; silent presentation.
04 / THE WORKSPACE, UP CLOSE
Every frame tells you more.
Real views from the prototype.
Open any capture to look closer.
Unreal screenshots are prototype test evidence using Epic's Quinn mannequin. Quinn is an Epic asset, separate from our original Kite, Mica, and Rook character studies. See media notes and provenance.

A FEW DETAILS
Can I download Echo Pose yet?
A public release and marketplace listing have not been announced. This site shows development prototypes; pricing and release dates are still to come.
What does a foot lock preserve?
The foot's existing animated position and orientation on each frame. A walking foot keeps its steps. Locks do not add floor collision, freeze a foot for the whole clip, or repair existing penetration.
Do the Unreal and Blender tools have the same features?
They share an animation core, but the current interfaces differ. The newer tracked paths, mesh echoes, connected editing controls, and pose timing workspace shown here are Unreal features. Blender currently supports its own pose-editing workflow over Actions.
Are these recorded speed comparisons?
No. The short videos are edited demonstrations. The quick cut is deliberately accelerated and labeled; it is not a benchmark. Original character videos use programmatically driven Echo Pose core edits rendered in Blender. Editor screenshots and videos come from actual prototype captures.
