Terminator 2 is a massive success, but now he wants to tell one of the most famous stories of all time.
which is the sinking of the Titanic.
Because it's Jim Cameron, he's gonna do it on a scale that no one's ever done it before.
So it started from motion capture where you had marker dots on the body and you captured the body in any way that the body moved.
But then it went to the next level when we created the head rig, which videos the face.
And then that drives a whole chain of events downstream from that that feeds that performance into their CG character.
We don't call it motion capture.
We call it performance capture.
So we'll capture your face.
James Cameron is a wizard, and he does all the magic that changes our lives and changes film forever.
Sam's going to enter.

How's the helmet feel?
A makeup artist came up and put several dots on my face because the helmet that you wear has a camera directly in front of you, and that camera is looking at your dots on your face to find every little nuance of its expression.
Has this changed since the first film?
Has anything advanced or changed, or is this all pretty similar?
In principle, it's almost exactly what we started with on the first Avatar, where we pioneered the whole head rig setup.
And it wasn't just that James took this seriously.
He gave me a full backstory.
He told me what my character would be feeling, what parts of my life I could pull from.
