Digital Penguin

In the movie “Surfs Up” digital penguins are used to bring the story to life. CGI has been in advancement for many years and in this movie it has taken a stride forward by making these penguins very anthropomorphic. These lively penguins have become very life like and like humans. Giving these penguins feelings and emotions that people would have. That is the advancement of CGI. CGI has been in use by many of our top favorite filmmaking companies such as Pixar, DreamWorks, and Walt Disney. Now with the technology getting more and more advanced we are now able to map our own physical movements and project it onto the screen. This action of motion capturing is being used to make our top films in this day and age. In the movie Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest actor Bill Nighy plays Davey Jones. However, Bill Nighy never actually appears in the movie, his voice and body languages were both placed in the movie with the use of motion capture. This gives the CGI created monster a more believable and human like performance given by the actor.
