Source Choreography & In-Game Cinematics
Explore Valve’s dynamic Face Poser toolset to develop choreographed NPC sequences, including custom dialog, facial animation and blended gestures - each containing multiple actors, conditionals, and events. Various sequences are then connected and additional interactivity can be integrated via the powerful input/output response system in Hammer for endless possibilities. You can even harness the in-game camera to dictate how players can or should experience the action as it unfolds.
