In Response To: Re: 'Exposing 'Et Tu Brute'' at gamevideos.com (jman571)

: Very cool. There was some good discussion, and a really nice catch of the the
: new un-textured weapon that helmet-less Brute was holding.

: Though a think they need corrected on a few points. The fact that they were
: making fun of the Bungie "mo-cap" studio had me shaking my head.
: The reason they don't need such as big space is because that isin't
: mo-cap (motion capture) . They're just recording body movements and
: actions in order to help the animators manually keyframe the animations
: later on after reviewing the video. No mo-cap. Just to clarify. I'm also
: kinda surprised they didn't talk about the green Brute blood too.

100% correct about motion capture. To anyone that knows anything about game development or the entertainment industry, it's obvious that they're just using it as reference for hand animated keyframe animations. Some studios prefer to manually keyframe animate everything - for example, Splinter Cell has always been done manually. Mocap can be a pain to work with, especially when blending between animations. A game dev company that I worked at would always film themselves performing movements, such as sword fighting, dying, etc. using a video camera and then use it as a reference when animating.
