In the 2000&#8217;s, motion capture began to be more widely used.<\/p>\n<p>Peter Jackson, in <em>The Lord of the Rings<\/em> films, used mo-cap extensively for the character of Gollum (played by Andy Serkis): an elaborate system of 25 cameras were used to record the actor&#8217;s movement and apply the information from the markers to a 3D model.<\/p>\n<p>Serkis and Jackson teamed up once more to create 2005&#8217;s <em>King Kong<\/em>, where facial markers were used for the first time. 2004&#8217;s <em>The Polar Express<\/em> was the next milestone as a 3D film to be created using motion capture technology.<\/p>\n<p>Its director, Robert Zemeckis, refined his technique in 2007&#8217;s <em>Beowulf<\/em> and 2009&#8217;s <em>A Christmas Carol<\/em>. The <em>Pirates of the Caribbean<\/em> films were unique as actors were filmed in mo-cap suits and markers on-set rather than in a studio as was done previously.<\/p>\n<p>The breakthrough in realistic motion capture came with 2006&#8217;s <em>Happy Feet<\/em> (Animal Logic) &#8211; which won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature &#8211; and 2009&#8217;s <em>Avatar<\/em> (WETA Digital).<\/p>\n<p>The director of the latter film, James Cameron, a long-time dabbler in special effects techniques, even devised what he called a &#8216;virtual camera&#8217; that enabled him to view the actors&#8217; motion in their CGI avatars as they were being filmed.<\/p>\n<p>The astounding level of detail that was captured sets <em>Avatar<\/em> apart even today in terms of quality. Motion capture that incorporated actors&#8217; expressions in addition to body movement began to be termed &#8216;performance capture&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-879\" src=\"https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/HF_GALLERY_30-300x146.jpg\" alt=\"motion capture maac Kolkat\" width=\"483\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/HF_GALLERY_30-300x146.jpg 300w, https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/HF_GALLERY_30-768x374.jpg 768w, https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/HF_GALLERY_30.jpg 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 483px) 100vw, 483px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-874\" src=\"https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/3cfe0b5e7c58c264617ab422d57caa82.jpg\" alt=\"motion capture maac Kolkata\" width=\"236\" height=\"264\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-875\" src=\"https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/28happ-300x208.jpeg\" alt=\"motion capture maac Kolkat\" width=\"300\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/28happ-300x208.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/animationkolkata.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/28happ.jpeg 650w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Since then, motion capture technology has only moved forward.
