INCREDIBLE MR LIMPET fx clarafication!!!

Ok ok, Goldfinger corrects me, but he basically describes them digitally attaching his face, just sort of fishifying it too. I meant to say that, really. I don't know the techno-mumbo-jumbo, but kudos for keeping me on me toes. That really hurts when you weigh as much as me though...

On your website, you mentioned "Jim Carrey will have his face digitally attached and altered to a fish". That is totally incorrect.

What you should know is that Pacific Title/Mirage Studios is using a wonderful new process which basically motion-tracks Jim Carrey's facial movements and creates a library. They have a computer-model of his face (as a fish), and they are able to create Jim Carrey doing _anything they want_. Is this the beginning of the new "digital actor"? Probably.

In any case, it is cutting edge stuff, and very exciting to see.....
