Autodesk Flow Studio, formerly known as Wonder Studio by Wonder Dynamics, is a cloud-based AI toolset that transforms live-action footage into editable CG scenes. Built by Wonder Dynamics and now part of Autodesk, it removes the need for motion capture suits, complex 3D setups or expensive production hardware.
From live action to CG automatically
Upload footage shot on a single camera and Flow Studio detects each actor's performance, then transfers it to a CG character with matching animation, lighting and composition. It handles multi-shot sequences with automatic cut detection, tracks actors throughout a scene, and lets you assign different characters to different performers, using your own uploaded 3D models or characters from the free community library.
AI motion capture and VFX building blocks
- AI Motion Capture: markerless capture of body, face and hand motion directly from footage.
- Camera Tracking, Clean Plates, Alpha Masks and Character Passes for professional compositing.
- 3D model generation and AI rigging from text or images, plus an AI neural rendering layer with LoRA for consistent characters.
- 3D Editor and Canvas for building, directing and rendering AI-generated scenes.
Fits professional pipelines
Scenes export to Maya, Blender, Unreal Engine and 3ds Max via USD, so artists can keep refining in their usual tools. With a free tier and low-cost plans, Flow Studio is one of the most powerful 3D animation generator tools for filmmakers and VFX artists.
