James Cameron waited for technology to catch up with his ambition
There’s a reason Avatar: the way of the water took so long to make, and it’s not because James Cameron is lazy. In fact, Cameron was so ambitious with his follow-up ideas that they were unfeasible a decade ago. Much of the movie takes place in or underwater, with the crew needing new and improved motion capture suits to make it work. The director discussed the new technology in the past and said, “It’s never been done before.”
“Well, we’re doing it. It’s never been done before and it’s very inconvenient because our motion capture system, like most motion capture systems, uses what they call optical base, which means it uses markers that are used with hundreds of cameras. photographed. The problem with water is not the underwater part, but the interface between the sky and the water, which forms a moving mirror. That moving mirror reflects all the dots and marks, and it creates some false marks. It’s kind of like a fighter jet that dumps a bunch of chaff to confuse a missile’s radar system it creates thousands of false targets so we had to figure out how to get around that problem which we did every problem it just gets ten times harder so we got a lot horsepower, innovation, imagination and new technology thrown at the problem, and it’s now taken us about a year and a half to figure out how we’re going to do it.”
Cameron plans to follow up with three more films The way of the water, although the fourth and fifth will rely on box office success from the earlier films. So will avatar continue her dominance in the theater? The public will find out on December 16.
