Movie making is witnessing a revolution in the field of animations and props. Animation is an ancient procedure that refers to effects added to characters moving in front of a camera. Together with the new computer technologies, the great revolution in the media and sound equipment and the rapid development in the industrial field; a new expression was born, Animatronics. Each of the three factors shares the responsibility for this birth, while the computer has the main role in the shots of many animatronics. Its unlimited programs accompany the shot made from the beginning based on the idea that it is also sometimes a clue to a computer program.
Drawing the sketches and outlines of the characters involves one of ten cool programs specializing in the art of drawing. Once the sketches have been finalized, the action takes place on the ground. Here comes the role of the industry, which includes the choice of the right materials for the character to be made. Computer interference is produced by adding some imaginary props to the scene, such as the background. Character animation and sound effects are also applied to the scene.
A blend of animation and electronics allows filmmakers to produce limitless imaginary creatures and incredible lifelike characters. While watching a movie about dinosaurs, for example, you may reach a point where you forget your information about these creatures and believe that they are real.
Animatronics and props, like any other technology in our daily life, has good and bad points. The advantages include some of the following points:
- Animatronics made movie making easier and more productive, so it became a thriving industry that attracts diverse specializations such as designers and technicians, meaning new job opportunities were created.
- Movies became more interesting and a source of joy.
- Animatronics added a lot to the educational sector through the illustration of programs.
- However, new technology has many negative effects, such as:
- It flooded our world with many similar copy-paste movies and other media that ruined the taste of good work and produced generations of bad taste. You can hardly find a single creative piece of art in this field.
- The loss of good taste is also accompanied by the loss of the original natural work. Many people still long for the good old days of movies and television too.
