Overview
Autodesk Flow Studio is a cloud-based, AI-powered 3D VFX toolset that converts live-action footage into fully controllable CG scenes. It enables VFX artists, filmmakers and post-production teams to generate, rig, animate and export cinematic shots using AI-driven generation, rigging, motion capture, camera tracking and compositing workflows.

Key benefits

• AI rigging & Neural Layer: automatic rigging and an AI-driven rendering layer to produce performance-ready characters and cinematic look development.
• Asset generation: create 3D models from text and images using advanced AI (Wonder 3D) for rapid character and prop creation.
• Live-action to CG: convert any video into directable 3D scenes and composite CG characters into footage using only camera input.
• AI motion capture: markerless capture of body, hands and facial motion from standard video sources.
• Editable exports: export mocap, camera tracking, clean plates, alpha masks and render passes ready for downstream finishing.
• Interoperability: import/export workflows for Maya, Blender, Unreal, 3ds Max and USD pipelines.

Features

• 3D generation & AI rigging: generate fully textured 3D characters from text or images and auto-rig them for animation.
• Neural Layer: AI-driven rendering layer for cinematic shots and look development.
• Expanded AI models: integrated next-generation models (examples include Trellis 2.0, Wonder 3D, Nano Banana family) to create images and convert them to 3D.
• AI motion capture improvements: enhanced grounding and more natural 3D motion for face, body and hands.
• Workflow flexibility: outputs formatted for finishing in Maya, Blender, Unreal, USD and 3ds Max.
• Cloud processing & credit model: cloud-based processing with a credit-based subscription model; free tier available.

Pricing
Subscription plans start at $10 / month. Free tier available for exploration. Plans use monthly credits for different processes (AI mocap, live-action conversion, animation/video-to-3D) with monthly credit reset.

Product highlights & positioning

• Built for storytellers, artists, filmmakers and VFX teams to accelerate production and focus on creative decisions.
• Cloud-native service: no specialized on-set hardware required; footage is processed into editable CG elements in the cloud.
• Provides ready-to-use export elements (mocap, camera tracking, alpha masks, clean plates, character passes) for standard 3D and VFX pipelines.
