![]() They would then continue to act out the part whilst several cameras track the reflective pads. Optical Motion Capture is another common form of Motion Capture, It requires the actor/actoress to wear reflective sensors over a tight ‘Mocap Suit’ or there own clothes if they wish. An actor/actoress would wear several magnetic receivers in which transmitters would tract and calculate movement.Įlectromagnetic Motion Capture was used in another 20th century fox film ‘The Lord of The Rings’ for one of the lead roles of the creature ‘Gollum’. Mechanical Motion Capture is still a popular type of Motion Capture because of it’s cost, It’s one of the cheapest options available in it’s field.Įlectromagnetic Motion Capture is one of the more technical types of Motion Capture relying on transmitters and receivers to track movement. Mechanical Motion Capture is a process in which the actors/actresses wear skeleton structured body suits known as ‘exo-skeleton motion capture systems’ to track human joints and angles. Here I have embedded a short video that I found whilst researching Motion and Performance Capture in to my blog titled ‘Performance Capture’ which takes you behind the scenes on set of the film ‘Avatar’ so that you can understand how revolutionary this new technique of Performance Capture is changing the way CGI characters are developed. The whole purpose of this film was to capture the performance of an actor and translate it into a digital form. More sensors will be used to portray these features making It is a very time consuming process, a perfect example of Performance Capture is the 2009 20th Century Fox award winning film “Avatar” which took almost 15 years to create. Motion Capture technology has advanced phenomenally since the 1970’s and Performance Capture is a term referred to when Motion Capture animates small human features such as fingers, subtle expressions and facial features. Once this footage is recorded it is then translated onto a 3D Model. ![]() ![]() It’s a process in which recordings of human movement are translated into a digital form by filming sensors on every pivot point on the actor/actresses body. Motion Capture also known as Motion Tracking or ‘Mocap’ for short is basically 3D Animation.
