What is Matchmove & Rotomation?

Matchmove is a critical part of visual effects production as it connects 3D elements with 2D plates, serving as a bridge between 2D and 3D. It involves creating a replica of the live action camera from the original footage to integrate computer graphics into live-action footage, ensuring correct position, scale, orientation, and motion relative to the photographed objects in the shot.

Rotomation is a technique of using motion capture data to animate 3D models for more realistic movement. 3D Rotomation is used in a variety of visual effects work, such as animating photorealistic CG creatures, adding digital doubles for actors or replacing sections of live-action footage with entirely CGI environments.
