What is Animatronics?
Animatronics is the use of electronics and robotics in the creation of puppets which simulate life.
It is a multi-disciplinary field which integrates anatomy, robots, mechatronics and puppetry resulting in the lifelike animation of any living or lifeless object.
How it began….
Animatronics made cinematic history long before digital effects were around.
It was first introduced in movies by Walt Disney in 1963
Today it is used in films parallel with VFX, museums, advertisements and many more.
Planning example
Creating an animatronic character… The storyline
The Model and its Mechanical feasibility
The Framework
The driving mechanism
Art work
Motion and movements
The Storyline
•
Story plot and brief role of animatronics in the plot
•
Sketching the artwork and acknowledgement
Artist sketching spinosaurus,
Proportional
clay model Final movie scene
At stanby winston depicted modelstudios, Los
Angeles
The model Artwork
The Art Team develops the model and acknowledges with the director for further work The Feasibility of a larger structure is studied by design engineers
Director Joe Johnston and the onefifth-scale maquette of the Spinosaurus from jurassic park III
The framework
Holds the body
Allows motion as per the scene
Uses steel, wood, polycarbonate or lighter plastics
Live working on the framework
Driving Mechanism
The characters may be driven either mechanically or by human force
The mechanically driven character is remotely controlled by RF (radio signals)
For small structure, electric motors, and for larger structure we use hydraulics or
