“Motion capture is exactly what it says: it's physical moves, whereas performance capture is the entire performance - including your facial performance. If you're doing, say, martial arts for a video game, that is motion capture. This is basically another way of recording an actor's performance: audio, facial and physical.” IfsWayArtMovingActorsGamesPerformancesIncludingVideoMartial ArtsCaptureAnother WayFacialAudio Author:Andy Serkis
“Everything about filmmaking is incredibly weird, and there's nothing natural about watching yourself on the big screen or hearing your voice. It's that same thing that you feel when you watch yourself on a video camera and you hate the sound of your voice - it's that times 800.” FeelsBigsHateActorsSoundVoiceNaturalWatchesCamerasHearingScreensVideoMovieFilmmakingBig ScreenVideo CamerasHearing Your Voice Author:Eddie Redmayne
“If I can have the opportunity to go into an editing room, it's like the golden ticket for me. All I want is to learn about everything else in the filmmaking process.

“Movies now, you can watch a trailer for a movie on TV now and you're not sure if it's a video game or a movie.

“So we are headed for a time when there won't be anything but movies that are essentially made like video games, and actors will become obsolete, and then the big stars will be people who live in Brentwood or wherever it is, and they have a show called, I don't know, "Pool Parties of Brentwood" or something like that.” PeopleKnowsMadeShowsBigsActorsGamesStarsPartyVideoPoolObsoletePool Party Author:Billy Bob Thornton
“You might think of a haunting as a loop of video or audio tape playing itself over and over for you to watch. Trying to interact with it would be akin to trying to interact with a show on your TV: sure, you can turn it off or change the channel, but I wouldn't expect the actors to suddenly stop and talk to you directly.” ThinkingTryingShowsMightWould BeTurnsActorsWatchesTvsVideoTapeHauntingLoopsAudio Author:Loyd Auerbach
“It's funny: I put money into short films, and I put really good actors in it, and I write some stuff that's really funny, and I'll get, like, a million views.
