Realtime assets for digital creators
Built for creators who need to appear live
Mimic Productions develops real-time assets for influencers who want more than static content. The focus is on lifelike digital humans that can speak, emote and perform in real time across social media, live events, AR activations and metaverse-style experiences.
Our Berlin team combines 3D character creation, optimisation, rigging, facial animation and real-time rendering into one production pipeline. That makes it possible to turn a digital persona into an interactive brand presence, whether the brief calls for a virtual spokesperson, an artist avatar or a branded digital twin.
Production challenges
Typical production pressures
Influencer teams usually need avatars that can work in public, stay on brand and hold up under live scrutiny.
01
Keeping the persona believable
Audiences quickly notice when a digital personality feels stiff or visually inconsistent, so the asset has to carry expression, timing and emotional nuance as well as likeness.
03
Handover across platforms
Influencer campaigns often involve agencies, labels and internal teams, so the asset needs clear delivery for real-time engines, streaming setups and ongoing content production.
02
Planning for live use
A social avatar may need to move from recorded content to real-time interaction, which means the rig, animation setup and engine integration must support performance, not just still renders.

Production approach
From digital persona to live presence
For influencer work, the asset is only one part of the delivery.
Specify the target application, camera distance and expected scene complexity. Review the asset in that context and agree responsibilities for optimisation, import and testing, including how materials and animation should behave in the final experience. For a virtual creator, share identity guidelines, recurring expressions and the formats used across the planned content series.

How we work
How a project typically moves forward
01
Define the role
Agree what the avatar needs to do, from social content to live appearances, and identify the platforms and delivery format.
02
Build the character
Create or refine the digital human with scanning, rigging, textures and animation preparation suited to the intended use.
03
Integrate performance
Set up facial animation, motion capture and any live control requirements so the avatar can perform in real time.
04
Test and hand over
Check the asset in the target engine or workflow, then deliver the files and practical production guidance for the next team.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Q.1 Is a real-time avatar the same as an AI influencer?
The avatar is the digital character. A complete virtual influencer setup may also need voice, animation, publishing and live-performance systems. Define which of those your team already has and which you need us to prepare, so the character work and technical integration have clear boundaries.
Q.2 Can this be used for social media only?
Yes. A virtual influencer can be prepared for social content, with other versions scoped for live or interactive use. Tell us the intended channels and formats before production. A rendered clip does not need the same delivery setup as a character controlled live in an engine.
Q.3 Do you provide the live-streaming setup?
We can discuss the character and real-time performance setup for live streaming. Confirm the broadcast software, engine, input devices and operating team. A complete streaming platform is a separate requirement, so the asset handoff and live-production responsibilities should be agreed before work begins.
Q.4 Can you make the avatar speak and react live?
Yes, with a suitable performance setup. Facial and body motion capture can drive a digital character live, including expressions and gestures. Define the inputs and target engine during the brief. Automated conversation or generated speech requires additional systems beyond the character asset itself.
Q.5 What engines are supported?
We support Unreal Engine and Unity. The character must be prepared for its target engine, including materials, facial controls and animation. Share the live or interactive use case and hardware limits so performance can be reviewed under conditions relevant to the final deployment.
Q.6 Is this suitable for a virtual brand ambassador?
Yes. The influencer source explicitly describes virtual brand ambassadors, digital twins and interactive virtual personalities. The practical boundary is that Mimic provides the character and production workflow, while the broader campaign strategy, audience management and platform operation remain with the client or its partners.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
For virtual influencer production, real-time character production scope depends on existing asset quality, geometry and texture budgets, rig complexity and integration. Send the engine version, target hardware, asset budgets and required interactions. Identify the social channels, content formats and any live appearances so the character can be prepared for each use.
