See CHAPPIE Come to Life in New Visual Effects Reel
Sharlto Copley's work as the title character in Neill Blomkamp's Chappie was one of the best parts of an otherwise-disappointing movie, but no one can deny that Blomkamp is doing interesting things with visual effects. Case in point, this new VFX breakdown video from Imagine Engine, the company responsible for transforming Copley's on-set performance into the work of a robotic entity. When I watched Chappie, I knew that Copley was providing the movement for the character, but it wasn't until I watched this video that I saw exactly how much of the character's personality came from Copley himself and not from digital wizardry.
It's a shame this movie wasn't better in the end, because there are definitely some cool elements to it. Check out the full visual effects reel below:
