This is Animated


This is completely animated. Through a complex system where an actor comes in, essentially, get scanned, then animated. It's pretty realistic (apparently the eyes are difficult), only odd in a few places. The only question I have is why? Why spend more to animate than to shoot an actress. In the view of animation director Hayao Miyazaki, the only reason to animate is to bring something to life that is not possible through film.

Still, pretty amazing.
