Depth Analysis, a Sydney-based tech company reports on the development of 'MotionScan', a new system for HD, 3D motion-capture of actor performances for video games/motion pictures, powering Rockstar Games’ "L.A. Noire", developed by Team Bondi.
“Traditional motion capture could never bring to life the subtle nuances of the chaotic criminal underworld of 'L.A. Noire' in the same way as MotionScan,” said Brendan McNamara, Founder, Director, Team Bondi.
“MotionScan allows me to immerse audiences in the most minute details of the 'L.A. Noire’ interactive experience, where the emotional performances of the actors allow the story to unfold in a brand new way."
MotionScan incorporates 32 High Def cameras to capture 3D performances, up to 30 frames per second, capturing up to 50 minutes of final footage, while processing 20 minutes of facial animation automatically per day. No markers or phosphorescent paint needs to be applied to the actors at the time of recording.
For directors and cinematographers, an additional advantage of MotionScan is the ability to view an actor’s performance from any angle, without the need for multiple camera and lighting setups.
