Considering all the mocap that goes into them, at this point, fmv would probably be a whole lot cheaper. Less uncanny valley too

Remedy Entertainment has u covered

Fr though I really appreciate the earnestness of that part of Alan Wake 2 with the old gods, really makes you FEEL like videogames

yeah theyre really cooking over at remedy. love that the double exposure stuff has basically become a house style for them

Of all the people to look at Patrick Clare’s work (in this case TD) and adopt the style to great affect, they have done it better then most.

Now if everyone could stop copying his titles for daredevil that would be great

He started SO many visual trends that TV just takes for granted now.

It is a pity he’s an AI booster

Sorry, Patrick Clare is an Aussie motion designer who through his work with antibody and elastic is basically responsible for the style of modern tv show titles

I firmly believe we’re due for an FMV renaissance.

it's very funny to me that dragon's dogma 2 does this for cooking meat at a campfire; just cuts to a close-up video of real meat in a pan

haraiva.bsky.social•64 days ago

hell yeah

Honestly, I prefer FMV to mo-capped CGI.
As much as I adore the work of many graphical artists in the games industry, I would rather see more costumers, set designers, lighting and sound techs, photographers, and actors getting work.
