Realistic Movements

[Rooky Animator]

Could anybody tell me how to make an object look like it's moving realistically. U know like those blue suits and they add the CG character to those actions? HELP

Do you mean "motion capture"? Which is also called "MoCap" or "performance capture", depending on who's talking about it. A Google search using those terms will turn up a lot of information on the subject.

 

Hope that helps.

...but then, MOCAP requires extra equipment. Could you be more specific?

A long time ago I did a small animation wich I used a simple movie as rotoscope... no extra equipments.

Hmm. True - using a video file as a rotoscope isn't mocap, in that it doesn't do the work for you - but it does work and it is cheap.

Thanks guys, I like the idea for the rotoscope thing but there's just one thing wrong. Whenever I pull up a rotoscope, it doesn't show the picture in the box, it just shows white in the box.

Change your realtime rendering. If you are using OpenGL, change to DirectX...if you're using DirectX, change to OpenGL. It's on the "Global" tab of the "Options" menu.
