AnimHost connects animation generators to Digital Content Creation applications, on-set tools like VPET or Game Engines in general. It explores enhanced XR production processes for animated films, utilising machine learning with a “fair use of data” and an “artists in the loop” approach.

Follow these steps to set up the project on your local machine:
- Clone the repository You can clone the repository and it's submodules by running the following command in your terminal:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/FilmakademieRnd/AnimHost.git - Navigate to the project directory - Change your current directory to the project directory:
cd AnimHost - Create a build directory - Create a new directory named
buildin the project directory:mkdir build - Navigate to the build directory - Change your current directory to the
builddirectory:cd build - Run CMake - Run CMake to generate the build files, specifying Visual Studio as the generator. This project uses vcpkg for third-party dependencies, so this step might take some time. Replace
../AnimHostwith the path to the source code if it's not in the parent directory:cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" ../AnimHost - Build the project - Finally, you can build the project using the generated build files. You can specify the configuration (Debug, Release, etc.) with the
--configoption:cmake --build . --config Release
