What Plask Motion is
Plask Motion turns video into 3D animation using AI motion capture without suits or sensors. It supports body capture from a single camera, then lets users apply the extracted movement to an imported 3D character. Blinking and physics are supported for MMD and VRM models. The product can render video with automated camera and lighting controls and customizable effects, and exports FBX, GLB, and BVH. Listed workflows include Blender, Unreal Engine 4 and 5, iClone, After Effects, MetaHuman, VRoid, Cinema 4D, and Ready Player Me. Scene sharing and realtime collaboration are included in all three plans. Plask recommends horizontal video at 720p or higher; accepted MP4 and WebM videos can be up to 100 MB and between 3 seconds and 5 minutes long. Multi-person capture has tighter limits: fewer than 10 people, under one minute, and 1,800 frames. The software recognizes human forms and is not compatible with non-human objects for animation. A free plan is listed; Standard and Pro offer a 7-day trial. Standard costs $18 a year, and Pro costs $50 a year.
