Technical terms of motion capture
A) Pre – Production
Scene: A scene or script is a part, numbered screenplay, which can be divided into parts long shot, medium-shot, plane, etc by the director when shooting. A main stage is a fairly long length of script, all under one number, which the director undoubtedly break later. He or she may, however, take an entire scene's first teacher, then shoot close-ups of the various characters of this later cutting. In the animation of the basic unit of continuous action, usually shot in the background, from which a film is built up.
Screenplay: Detailed instructions scene by scene for a film or television production, including description of the environment and action with dialogue and camera directions. When the script also has all the details of the visuals is called a "storyboard."
Storyboard: a way to script common trigger of animated films for many years and now is usually used for commercials, even live action. It consists of a series of sketches of key positions for each scene, with dialogue and fact sheets to below. Still used in the animation.
================================================== ==============
B) Production
2D Animation: The creation of moving images in an environment of two dimensions, such as through "traditional" cel animation or in computerized animation software. This is done by sequencing consecutive images, or "frames", which simulate the motion of each image showing the next in a gradual progression of steps. The eye can be "tricked" to receive motion when these consecutive images are shown at a speed of 24 frames per second or faster. 3D
Animation: The creation of images moving in a digital environment in three dimensions. This is done by sequencing consecutive images, or frames, which simulate the motion of each image showing the next in a gradual progression of steps, filmed by a virtual "camera" and then save them on video by a rendering engine. The eye can be "tricked" to perceive the motion when these consecutive images are shown at a speed of 24 frames per second or faster.
animation Character: The art of making an animated figure movement as a unique individual, sometimes described as acting through drawings. The moderator should "understand how personality of the characters and the structure of the body is reflected in their movements.
Character model: A sheet of drawings in the definition of the proportions, shape, clothing etc. of a character to the orientation of the animators.
Computer animation: The technique of using computers to generate images moving. Some systems can do this in real time (25 frames per second or 30 fps in the U.S.), but most of the animation is created one frame at a time and then released in a continuous sequence. Very sophisticated programs are required to perform the tasks of movement, fairing, perspective, hidden surface elimination, color, shading and lighting, and with increasing trend towards more realistic images, faster computers are needed to process the millions of calculations needed for each table. The term "computer animation" covers a wide range of issues, but in general can be defined as the creation of moving images through the use of computers. These images can be created in both two-dimensional or three-dimensional space, and can be applied to web design, user interface design, application development, video games, movies, special effects, animation, and many others.
Infographic: The graphics, diagrams, drawings and other pictorial representations that are generated by computer.
Effects Animation: The animation of the movements are not as such as rain, smoke, lightning, water, etc.
Go-Motion: Similar to "Stop-Motion ', but the animation is produced by the bars attached to the Pupet / creature that can be programmed by a computer to perform the required movement. The advantage over stop-motion is that much more realistic motion can be created, because the puppet / creature blurs slightly between each frame. The disadvantage is that the bars attached to the creature needs to be seen (for example, using a blue screen process)
In Between: The role of drawing a figure that is in sequence between two key positions drawn by an animator.
keyframe animation: The animator is "based" directly on the CRT display and produces an image-based or cell. A number of these patterns can be superimposed on one another to form a cell composed or frames of reference. Many of these key frames can be made and stored on your computer to be called and used as needed. The action of the film can be created by agglutination of a series of keyframes, and the introduction of the desired movement from one frame to the next. Each keyframe can be used again and again simply calling repeatedly from the team score.
Stop-motion animation: Move a puppet or a special effects model / creature a small amount and recording a single frame (or small number of frame) so that when the movie plays at normal speed, appears to move. The drawback with this form animation is that sometimes may appear to "flash" in part due to the lack of blur between the frames.
modeled in three dimensions: descriptions a geometric object using polygons or solids in three dimensions (x, y, z coordinates) in order to create the illusion of height, width and depth.
================================================== ==============
C) Post
Edit: The process of assembling video clips, audio tracks, graphics and other source marerials in a presentable package.
Off-Line Edit: A "draft" editing, usually at an off-line editing suite (with a lower cost), then transfer to a center line to make the final cut.
On-Line Editing: The final version of an edition, prepared in a professional editing facility.
Nonlinear Editing: An approach the video editing made possible by digital video recordings. As with word processing, video segments can be inserted between two existing segments without clear either. Unlike the approach required when analog video editing, the segments do not need to "set" in the sequence in which later shown.
off-line editing: The steps during the editing process when a preliminary selection of useful shots and scenes is made, and the provisional sequence of these elements is decided. This process is normally at a lower cost, simpler than editing equipment is in a professional editing suite (where line editing is done). With off-line editing can significantly reduce total cost of a producation.
On-line editing: The steps during the editing process when compiling the program is completed. When available, this is done in a professional editing process bath and high quality equipment. If off-line editing has been done, the list of decision guides in line stage editing process, usually by minimizing the time and cost in the professional editing suite.
Post Production: The production stages that occur after the recording, filming or recording. This includes editing, mixing, effects, dubbing, compression, mastering, etc.
Make Field: A group of computers that work together to complete tasks computationally intensive of rendering 3-D.
================================================== ==============
D) Motion Capture
Mocap: The process of recording human motion data that can be used for 3D characters created on a computer. Mocap can be used for 3D animations for film, TV and games, and special effects work. There are wireless magnetic systems motion capture, and optical systems, which are markers attached to the facilitator.
Performance Capture: The recording of a performance, either human or animal by a motion capture system (or similar technology) – difference that can capture movement of a table, but you can not give a performance. Color Effects blue (or green)
Display: A system that replaces a specific color (blue in this case) with images from another source. This can be done optically (for example, using the film) or electronically (eg on video, also known as Chroma-Key video). Some computer systems out the pixels in the scene and determine whether to replace that pixel with the source video. Best computer systems allow "some" of the pixel color image from 1 and 'some' of another image. The best systems can have transparent objects (eg bottles), smoking, and combine these with the images of another source.
Chroma-Key: Introduction to the parts of an image that contains a specific color (or colors). For example. replacing a blue or green background images from another source.
Compound: To combine two or more individual images on a single sheet of photographic film or digital media. In early composition took place in the camera by masking part of the scene in the movie, rewind the film and the elimination of the matte and shooting again revealed the previously hidden. Digital compositing is commonplace, in which several film images are scanned into the computer, digitally combined, and the production of a single piece of film.
Motion Control: The control of movement of a camera or the object of special effects (eg space model, ship etc.), using commands from a computer, so that the precise movements can be repeated many times. This makes it easy to compound (s ie.combine with another shot).
Rotoscoping: Drawing around something in the frame so that an effect can be applied to the part of the film. If a living creature has to go after something in Part live-action film, that object can be drawn about what a mate can be created, so that the createur not appear at the top of the object. If the camera is moving, then each frame of the film would have to be rotoscoping. If the camera is still, then the same mate, probably be used for all frames in that shot. Rotoscoping was first used by Fleischer to make cartoons. The Fleischer invented the rotoscope, a device for the screening of the film live action frame by frame on paper so that the scheme could be tracked and used as a guide for animation. The Rotoscope is an animation camera and a light source (usually using a prism behind the movement and the house attached to the open door light camera) to print projects through a camera lens and the projected image is then traced to create a mate. The lamp module is removed and the crude material attached to the camera and the pictures are shot through the same lens that projected the image. The resulting image fit the original image if the two strips of film are administered twice packaging movement within the same projector (using an optical printer.) In film effects digital work, rotoscoping refers to any material produced, since both images can be compisited while the mate is being produced as good results can be achieved.
Virtual Sets: Sets that are generated (at least partially) from the data within a computer. Mostly used for work in television, these systems place real again (for example, a vacuum) with a set generated by computer, allowing the actor and move into the foreground. for example. the background is' a Coined "and replaced with the set that was created in a 3D package (eg, Softimage or 3D Studio Max), and any camera movements will double by 'virtual camera'. This requires a powerful computer, especially if it is to do in real time, such as a Silicon Graphics machine. The method to track the movement of the camera (so it can be duplicated in the 3D computer game) is different for different Sytems. Some systems use a grid painted blue on the back wall of a study of known size. A red LED is projected on the cameras and the actor / presenter so that they too can be tracked throughout the set.
Visual effects (also called optical or photographic effects): The special effects achieved with the aid of photographs or technology digital, which occurs after the principal photography, or the head shot of a movie. Includes miniatures, optical and digital effects, matte paintings, animation stop-motion and computer generated images (CGI).
Wire Removal: Removing unwanted wires, rods, etc. a piece of film its replacement by what would have been if they were not there (for example, the background.) This can be done by replacing them with the same area in another frame the wires / bars were not visible, or the average of the colors on either side of the cable and its replacement by the media.

E) New Media
A generic term for various forms of electronic communication is possible through the use of computer technology. The term is related to the "old" media forms, such as printed newspapers and magazines that are static representations of text and graphics. The new media include:
* * Web sites streaming audio and video * chat rooms * e-mail online communities * Web advertising * DVD and CD-ROM * * virtual reality environments for digital data integration with the phone, such as digital cameras Internet telephony * Mobile computing
The use of new media term implies that the data communication is happening between desktop and laptop computers and handheld devices such as PDAs, media and data taken, such as compact discs.
