Particularly the ways in which modern CGI techniques emulate, or build-up, old special effects techniques.<\/p>\n<p>Case and point: the <strong>digidouble<\/strong>, the practice of partially or fully recreating real human beings with CGI surrogates. Digidoubles are all over the place in superhero films, even in the most mundane of scenes, in part because costume elements like masks and costumes are easy to emulate digitally. Using digidoubles also allows studios to have more control after principal photography has wrapped.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s fascinating to think about how much digidoubles have in common with <strong>rotoscoping<\/strong>, an animation technique that allowed artists to use live-action film as a traceable reference to create more natural-looking animated motion. The line between live-action and animation is fuzzy in modern, big-budget superhero films. And however you feel about the genre, it\u2019s absolutely delightful that there\u2019s a directed genetic link between something like Ralph Bakshi\u2019s\u00a0<em>The Lord of the Rings <\/em>and the latest <em>Spider-Man <\/em>outing.<\/p>\n<p>For more on how and why digidoubles have become so prevalent in superhero fare, check out the video essay below.
