What if the performance came first?
Project Luna begins with a real human performance. Atlas Observe studies what matters. The filmmaker approves it. Then we test whether those choices carry into a different renderer.
Research question.
Can a performance survive a change in renderer?
This is the thesis Project Luna exists to test: whether an approved understanding of a human performance can carry forward when the tool that renders the shot changes. It is a research objective, not a demonstrated capability — see Research Log 004, Human Performance Sovereignty and Research Log 005, The Renderer Is Becoming Interchangeable for the doctrine this collaboration is testing.
ZOOPRA measures movement. Atlas Observe interprets performance.
Project Luna is a collaboration between two systems that contribute different parts of the same research without becoming the same product.
Movement
Measures movement relationships such as timing, balance, reach, velocity, and posture.
Performance
Connects movement to character, motivation, timing, gesture, emotional context, and approved production memory.
For Project Luna, Olivia's reference performance provides the human source. ZOOPRA helps observe movement. Atlas Observe describes the performance in context. The filmmaker decides what becomes canon.
