Attracting a Cold Audience Of Image Manipulation

Post by khairul618397 »

Did you forget “The Adventures of Tintin” too? Many of us have, and probably for good reason. This film was a box office disappointment that collected less than $23 million in its debut. It's not a great performance for a collaboration with Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson that Image Manipulation cost over $140 million to make. Critics and audiences alike were simply freaked out by the adaptation of Tintin 's beloved comics . But why? Don't fall into the "strange valley" It seemed safe for Spielberg. The popular and long-running Belgian comic Image Manipulation strip from the 1930s is one of the most popular of all time. “By 2007…

Tintin had been published in over 70 languages ​​with sales of over 200 million copies, and had been adapted for radio, television, theater and film.” - Wikipedia The Image Manipulation film's glaring flaw was its use, at the time, of state-of-the-art 3D digital visual effects that incorporated live motion capture, no different from those used in RPO. Spielberg executed his directorial skills quite well, but something was lost in translating the Image Manipulation characters' almost photo-realistic faces and eyes. Via The Hollywood Reporter The Tintin characters looked human - but not in a good way. Tintin's face didn't move like a real human face should.

His inflexible eyes, strangely shifting gaze, and Image Manipulation mannerisms were just unsettling. There is a popular theory that explains this phenomenon known as the "Strange Valley", proposed in 1970 by Japanese robotics professor Masahiro Mori. By Smurrayinchester or CC-BY-SA-3.0, via Wikimedia Commons Simply put: “…the closer an artificial figure or dummy gets to a human face without removing it, the more Image Manipulation unsettling its presence will become.” - Daniel D. Snyder, "'Tintin' and the Strange Story of Dead Eyes" Audiences love humanoid droids like C-3PO, characters from Frozen , or anthropomorphic movies like Sing, because they're over the top and "human," but not so much that they scare us.
