Definition's February 2019 issue heralds the possible end of the ‘uncanny valley'. A place where the unfortunates of motion capture linger hoping for a more realistic face. The recent movie ‘Welcome to Marwen’ features a new way of the motion capture of faces which blends traditional cinematography with games engine methodology. Also in the issue we have the capture story of Mary Queen of Scots and a sneak peek from the second seres of ITV’s Bancroft. We hear about the increase in augmented reality use and some capture through LIDAR scanning. New ways of camera movement and lighting are here to start your production year off and reviews include Panther’s engineering marvel, the S-Type.
