" @zarx: I know Heavenly Sword did it with excelent results, and probably enslaved too. Now, Botan's face is not a perfect Andy Serkis, but he did act all the scenes himself as one can see here: http://www.serkis.com/heavenly/. |
Andy Serkis also founded the mocap studio that they used, he is most well known for playing CGI charicters like Gollum and King kong so playing a game charicter isn't to much of a streach. The benefit of the facescan tech is that the scaning produces a "photo realistic" model that mimics the characters actual performance rather than just mapping the movement of traking dots onto a premade model. Both styles have their advantages but I think actors might prefer the face scan tech as it's get's their face out there.
