**MoCap Suit Update**
🕑 Added 2021-03-24 16:47:21 +0000 UTCDear Patreons,
A MoCap Suit with proper usage is definitely going to be a serious game changer and a big investment into the future of C&G-STUDIO. We wanted to let everybody know there are people out there having so much trust and believing in our work that we recieved a big donation yesterday shortly after we published our plans for the future. What we need are round about 3000$. Now we recieved an unbelieveable donation about 1000$ from one single person out there! We know you are reading this. THANK YOU again!
The only thing this person want us to do is to record more Booty-Shake Dances like the "Booty-Shake Dance Vol.6"
We say: "Mister, you got a damn hot deal there!" Our team was totally freaking out today about the message we´ve come so much closer to this new technology this fast!
This weekend we´ve got our monthly team meeting in wich we will also discuss what we can do now to afford this suit even faster. There would be options such as cutting performer budgets for example. Or maybe everyone in the team throws something in. Or maybe we try to borrow some money. A lot to discuss there. Lets see....
Your C&G-STUDIO Team
Ps.: Of course with this donation the original plan in gettin this suit round about in 3-5 months is reducing the waiting dramatically to about 2-3 months. 2-3 months with no additional money, just the studio earnings if the patreonage is stable.

Hey Mr. tdog! First of all let me clearify we actually do comissions since about 3 months. There is a separate tier for it with a big price tag. This tier was created after we recieved mails for a long time period in wich people can´t understand why we´re taking no comissions since we create pretty decent work so far. So if anyone is crazy enough to pay so much for a custom MoCap. The price covers not only the studio costs but also should scare off many people thinking creating MoCap shows like we do is done within a few ours only. Until now nobody was crazy enough to join this tier haha :P But we´re going to delete this tier in a few months because the MoCaps and shows are getting more and more complex and time consuming. Simply no space left for comissions. Ok, back to the topic. Since we came up with this idea of a MoCap suit we though about two companies wich would fit our needs. There is "Xsens" and "Rokoko". Xsens seems to deliver a higher quality standart and more precise technology than Rokoko. But thats just according to the raw mocap data. Rokoko delivers also a very easy to use software to clean up recorded animations (well we´re planing to work with blender anyway ). So talking about the quality we want to archive Xsens would be our suit of choice. But I think our decision will be the rokoko suit. Why? Well, we´re not new to the MoCap technology and have a lot of experience but to make it clear we´re new to MoCap technology outside of VaM with a suite like this. So the rokoko suite with its software and overall pricing is a good starting point from where we can get access to more advanced technology over time. (Gato)

What did you get? I bought a rokoko suit last year with the intention of hiring some dancers (since you folks don't do comissions) but the virus kinda got in my way. The rokoko I've found is a bit fiddly, if that's what you're getting, make sure to get all your measurements inputted, the output is much better

Yeah, Booty Shake Vol. 6 is top 3 of all your work indeed. Amazing. (I'm keeping track :) ).
KamiGato
So basically there will be a "touchy-booty-shake Dance Vol. 5" of course. But its not in our timetable yet. I was actually referring to the "Booty-Shake Dance Vol.6" here: -> https://www.patreon.com/posts/39169520 Have you missed this release? :P If so, enjoy! (Gato)

So basically you can just cancell your membership and renew it with a custom pledge again. Then cancell it again and renew with your actual tier.

Hi there. Wow! what great news! Every donation is pushing forward :) Well according to Patreon this is what I found out: "At the moment, Patreon only offer recurring memberships, and one time donations are not available. All patreon memberships are currently on recurring monthly, or annual (if your creator has this available) billing cadence. You can learn more about how creators can bill their patrons, in this article: Understand my payments to creators For now, the best way for a patron to subscribe to a creator with a one-time payment is to become a patron then simply cancel their membership after they have been successfully billed. You'll know when you have been billed because you'll receive an email confirmation stating your payment has successfully processed" Its a bit messy but should work I guess (Gato)

One other thing, i noticed you mentioned Booty Shake Vol. 6. Are you referrring to "Touchy Booty Shake"? And if so, sounds to me like you have a vol. 5 in the works then? Did I just discover a hint here? 🤔😁🕺

What is the best way to make an additional donation but keep my current tier?
