- Spectral Motion has been making animatronic puppets and props for movies and TV shows since 2002. Even if they don’t fully end up in the final shot, they can make for great references for both visual effects artists and the actors in front of the camera. Spectral Motion’s head of animatronics, Mark Setrakian, takes the characters sculpted and painted by the company’s artists and gives them the most realistic movements possible. This has included making giant troll hands compress and handle objects for “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters” (2013), manipulating robotic bits and foam skin to make a wolflike snarl for “Lady in the Water” (2006), and making the Demogorgon’s face petals move on the first season of Netflix’s “Stranger Things” (2016). Advancements in technology allowed Spectral Motion to push the kinds of terrifying movements it gave to the animatronic White Spike puppet who would be acting alongside Chris Pratt and Yvonne Strahovski in “The Tomorrow War” (2021).

How Realistic Animatronics Are Made For Movies & TV | Movies Insider - Zábava
The amount of work put into making realistic animatronics really shows how beautifully complex biology is.
dude u f*king everywhere
nub
ayo shut up bot
Just remember it all happened randomly with no intelligent design. Mind blowing, right? Jk.
Hi nub... Gedda fakkaouta he
How does one get into these kind of job. The hands-on, tech-based, problem-solving stuff here is exactly what I want in a career
Create a portfolio, move to LA, start doing the rounds. You're in for a disappointment though- notice 2 things from this video- all the examples are from nearly 20 years back, and all the current examples are "used by the computer animators for reference". The jobs just aren't there anymore. Not like they used to be.
@@CNMU until Augmented reality improves ,Then park will give AR headset to visitors
@Jesus has given you all. Repent or die. The purpose of life is to worship Allaah. in islam we believe in jesus,but we believe that jesus was a prophet sent by Allaah
I knew Mark back in high school. He was passionate about movie special effects from the very start. We all knew he was going to do some great things. Great job Mark!
I feel like people just end up in these kinds of specialized jobs by chance because they are so rare and niche.
Honestly animatronics still make such cool props and can really bring monsters and characters to life. It's a shame we don't use them as much anymore, I think they'd work really well when they enhanced with the amazing CGI we have.
5:25 Scary Monster
5:31 Sassy Alien
Remember: Animatronics tend to get a little bit quirky at night
No.
I knew there would be a reference
we see u roblox boi
Roblox is bad game
We all gonna to day ;(
The expressions shown at 2:44 are so incredible, I would have thought they were cgi. I didn’t even know that level of facial control was possible.
The hand and head expressions are amazing! Definitely would love to see this technology incorporated into real Androids!
They do this just to bring fun into our lives.... Much respect
Woah!! thanks for the likes guys
Dey also do it to make millions of dollars
Might be fun to showcase ones skill and creativity in such ways aswell
And money into their pockets.
@@ThemeParkBeast98 hey. its still a win win. Make good movie = More people watch. More people watch = More Money
They do this to make them money lol they don’t care about bringing fun into ppl life’s lol they want that multi million dollar check to “bring fun” / better lifestyle into there lives lol
Imagine adding those in prosthetics, obviously the size of a normal human arm
I LOVE him geeking out about the new tech. It's delightful, he's like a kid on Christmas morning
I'm definitely in love with robotics and IT stuff, and as much as love visual art, I'm so sad that such incredible, smooth moving animatronics, were CGI-ed af during post-production 😢😔
Animatronics never fail to impress me
The second I saw the hand i knew it was from Hansel and Gretel: Witch hunters. Such an under rated movie with great story centric effects
It's a shame they cover up all those great practical effects with CGI
these robots have their limits
They are used for thr reference bro. If it existed in real life they would have took the real life reference. These models allows to get rhe reference of the lighting shadows and also a view point to the actors to get the perfect emotions.
Great to hear that those kind of arts isn't dead.
Gah, great work: those things even without their skin on give me the creepies with their movement. They look alive for sure.
Gah
i love practical effects
Wow these folks are truly the magic makers!
everyones gangsta til the animatonics starts becoming alive
Cutting edge strain wave drives are more than strong enough to rival most biological muscles. Problem is, they can cost up to 30,000 USD per unit.
Do they get quirky at night?
Don't you hate it when these things just jumpscare you at 3am?
Nothing more scary than the Exorcist doll.
This was riveting. I'd love to learn how to do this!
Mark Setarkian is the MASTER.
No wonder the „CGI“ in Hellboy looked so real! Practical effects evolved into robotic science!
Definitely better than CGI. Great video !
I can't imagine how awesome it would be to act alongside these things.
The animatronic looks so much cooler and it takes a really good director to know how to use them spectacularly. The cgi doesn’t create tension and scariness. Looks more like a video game to me.
Robotics can make life with electriconics
This is type of carrer that you always keep your childhood alive!!!
This is incredible! Why can't they use this tech to develop lifelike prosthetics for everyday use?
To big to work in regular sized hand
The have develope already
I'd imagine they could, but just doing a basic search on robot arms, they seem to go for around 20,000 American dollars at the cheapest, so it'd most likely be far out of the budget for most patients.
@@enigmaticcat7915 Yes there are so much expensive.
Budget
I'm super impressed by Mark Setrakian. He's done some amazing things.
You and Mark explained this very well, thank you!
I like that no one controls the robots I find that cool. 😎😎😎🙂🙂🙂
Really it takes so much effort to do it all.
This got me into wanting to make my own cosplay with an animatronic face
That cascading technique is amazing.
I ALWAYS RESPECT TO BRILLIANT PRACTICAL ANIMATION.
I’m definitely watching some of these movies now
This Man on his own animatronics world. Awesome
Animatronics combined with computer graphic can create realistic effect rather than using one alone, case in point: Jurassic Park and Terminator 2. The tech used in animatronics is compatible with prosthetic design, just need a brain-to-device chip now.
My thoughts exactly but very complicated almost impossible. Especially for storing the amount of data it needs effectively.
At least we can really appreciate biological programming :).
WOW! Fantastic work
Hello:)
The first steps for that virtual world to come. Keep up guys!
So much science and brain they put into making the movie
wow. this is how it was made. amazing. I'm very impressed
The large hand is outstanding ..
Los animatrónicos son parte fundamental del cine pues aportan sensación de realismo
This was pretty eye opening.
A Five Nights at Freddy fan watching this be like:
I bet he made at least one animatronic and trapped a adult and a kid in it
Love that new Hansel and gretal
As mechatronics engineer, I wish I worked in something like this 🤧🤧
This has to be one of the coolest jobs in the world I'm so jealous
Underappreciated Geniuses
That guy in friends grew up feels good for him
Outstanding work
The real life models for the white spikes are terrifying, compared to the dull grey version in the movie.
Thank you for the update, Insider..!! The robotics is an amazing technology.@.@
One word for you guys...masterpiece
That's flippin awesome
That's much cooler than cgi
Why are servos still being controlled with joysticks instead of tiny input devices directly in a glove for instance or motion control from vision input from a human face and neck?
Depends on the final application. We use a variety of control systems.
Whoa, these are impressive!
Amazing work guys ❤️💯
Who else imagined the robotic hand come to life and overriding the joystick control to strangle the human
Adam’s Family Thing was dope af back in the day pulling the wagon 🤣
Of course the original Kongs hand was the real gangster OG tech!
Wow! Thanks for the insight
Thank u I enjoy watching and learning the mechanics of it all.
Definitely better than CGI. Great video
These guys do great work
Beautiful work!
Incredible work
Incredible 💥
Breathtakimg indeed
I hope films use more puppets and animatronics as the technology advances.
When talking about animatronic in real life,most of the people immediate thought is FNAF XD
Incredible
Another level
I respect these guy!!💯
This is some scary technology
These are better to watch than the movies they're in...
Wow I loved this
One thing that comes in my mind after seeing this video: Fnaf 🐻
Mark is amazing 👌
Nice to see they still use animatronics . I thought it was a lost art
Wow, gr8 monster making. Would b gr8 on holloween. Thx 4 sharing on Utube.
Beautiful VLOG ❤️
Amazing work! 👍👏
I want to be in this industry so bad! Making monsters would be awesome!
This is so amazing
Those animatronics do get freaky at night - FNAF
Practical effects my beloved
Animatronics are made great
It's so different from that I can't believe it
😂beilive me if i was to see that wolf at night i would get heart attack its soooooo realistic
