Sfx - Animatronics

ANIMATRONICS Animatronics is a type of special effects which involves building mechanized creatures like dinosaurs, imaginary animals, and others. Initially, the concept was developed for Disney Studios, which used a giant squid in the 1954 film version “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea”.The name “animatronics” is used to refer to generic animatronic creations made by other film studios, while Disney has copyrighted “audio-animatronics” to refer to their creature creations. In combination with other special effects, animatronics can lend a level of reality and texture to a film that computer animation does not provide.



This Picture is from Jurassic park which is a sci-fi thriller.

This looks very good in films as it can give the impression that something is actually there when it is not. we could use this by adding objects into the scene. such as another person who isnt meant to be there.
