iRacing Animation Development with David Lovecchio

In the beginning of the week, iRacing already showed us a sneak preview of the upcoming advanced animations they are working on. In the latest video, they show us some more footage of the enhancements they have in store for the future updates of iRacing.

iRacing’s Senior Animator David Lovecchio talks about his plans to innovate the animations used in the iRacing online racing simulator. In this video, David takes us behind the scenes of the iRacing graphics development and shows us some of the techniques involved in producing a top class animation.

As a first task, Dave takes a look at the existing iRacing lollipop guy and tries to find out what could be added to the animation in order to enhance the communication between the lollipop guy and the player. For instance, the new lollipop man will help you stop at the pit marker by guiding you to the exact position in your pit stall and will get your attention when it time to pull out and head out to the track.

Dave also talks about what’s in store for the upcoming build and gives us a small inside for what they have planned in the future.
