Cool 3D visualization captures the motion of famous olympic athletes

Felix Deimann — a motion designer based in Dortmund , Germany — created this awesome video recording that captures the motion of famous olympic athletes like Nadia Comăneci , Michael Phelps , the US basketball Dream Team and Usain Bolt , turning it into a continuous stream of beautiful abstract shapes .

This is Deimann ’s dissertation project :

Movements of celebrated Olympians where digitalised into 3D through motion tracking and rotoscoping of original footage of Olympic competitions . Camera motions and playback velocity of the footage were take over and the movements of the athletes were recreated frame by systema skeletale .
