During Thursday night's GameAwards at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, an unexpected guest made an appearance
at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, an unexpected guest made an appearance: Mirage, one of the playable characters in EA and Respawn's battle royale shooterWhat was particularly unique about this specific experience was not that a character from a popular, nominated title would be a part of the show, but that it was actually the in-game character model that appeared, interacting in real-time with host Geoff Keighley via the magic of motion capture technology.
"Drew came to us with a pitch back in October," says Lisha Tan, creative director at The Mill. "This is kind of new territory, new tech. We've never really done this before. It's completely different trying to capture this live, because with mo-cap you can always come back to it later. This is like filming live-action. It's live!"
"It's like puppeteering to a degree," Smith says as he takes a break, sipping a water and relaxing on a stool. The camera rig on his face blocks most of his face from view, but his smile is still evident. "It will be strange when I see the behind-the-scenes stuff and see the perspective that I don't get."
"There are some things to follow after the show that will drill home how live it is," adds co-director David Lawson. One such companion piece is a behind-the-scenes short about how the skit was put together. "We’re hoping that the experience that is taken away is something that feels much more live than could have ever been recorded."Winter Event, an in-game offering that grants players access to new content, gameplay modes and collectibles.
