FAQ About The Role of Puppetry in Modern Animation
What are some modern animation techniques influenced by puppetry?
Techniques such as stop-motion animation, animatronics, and motion capture owe much to puppetry. In stop-motion animation, physical puppets are used in each frame, allowing creators to manipulate them directly. Animatronics involves the use of robotic devices to animate puppets, often seen in films and theme parks. Motion capture also draws on puppetry principles by translating human movement into animated characters.
