Nov 3, 2008 - umm if you read into this more you might have realized that it is a simple procedure that involves very little time, hence it will replace the old technique

Nov 4, 2008 - hmmm i see what you mean. I saw another video of it and the process.... but I would still like to know how they would render entire levels...

mlsmodmusic Says:

Nov 9, 2008 - no, because the consols dont have to power to run that high quality of images. theres an article on it in the november GI.

Nov 11, 2008 - wow it's unbelievable how people don't appreciate some incredible work and still find a way to bash it. this is a truly innovative step forward for gaming just watch the next gen consoles are going to be really close to having this kind power

Nov 12, 2008 - Holy crap this is to real....

Nov 14, 2008 - It is rather fantastic work. However, one thing throws it and only if you're looking for it. Her eyebrows. When looking closely between the digital and real faces, they look slightly different.
kidkidder Says:
Nov 14, 2008 - Well technically they could change the face to a demon or an alien by using the motion data captured then applying some effects to her face to make her look completely different.

Nov 14, 2008 - This video was shown in my animation class last week and I was stunned when I first seen this. Amazing!

Nov 18, 2008 - Wtf "looked like shit". Pseudoscience, you "think" and you "wanted" it to look like shit so you can bash it. Face it, it looks pretty damn real.
uiralamour Says:
Nov 18, 2008 - Dont forget, just the face is cg...same as in baby 8), but that`s a nice motion capture, and its less expensive!
zNinjaAttack Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - can you say, running man? lol
zachariot Says:

Moongalz Says:
Nov 28, 2008 - the mouth area looks really fake...rest is good.
MRDaubuisson Says:
Dec 1, 2008 - I though she was CG
mlsmodmusic Says:
Nov 3, 2008 - Another point I would like to bring up is that, sure, it looks good... but im sure this isn't something they threw together and said "hey look what we did!". They probably spent a long time working on this face to impress people. But Imagine them trying to do it this beautifully for a game like grand theft auto or elder scrolls. Even for a smaller game, it wont happen anytime soon.
