AI software used in movies

Hi,

Maybe somenone knows AI softwares used in cinema such as MASSIVE in the Lord of the rings trilogy?

BTW: I do know that this site is for games but this is off-topic discussions.

AI software? I always figured that kind of stuff was actually created by artists and/or performance capture, so all the so-called AI was in fact made by people, not just left up to a program.

Could be wrong though.

I am talking about software which generates visual effects.

AI is something completely different

then how do you describe MASSIVE?

I heard that there was used some kind of facial recognition software in avatar. Maybe someone knows it's name?

Most of the CGI programs, and/or performance capture programs that the various CGI houses use are programs unique to said houses. Hence why the quality of CGI varies from movie to movie, company to company. I'm sure you could probably find specific programs on Google though...

Then any other notible generators than CGI?

I will rephrase it. Could you tell me applications used in movies that would be responsable for facial recognition, objects generation ar etc.

From the looks of this seems like they used something called PF Track for motion cap and Zbrush (Which is an absolutely awesome program).

I have paper to write and the theme is AI technologies in special effects (movies). So I nead to write about software which is used to make it happen.

Can anyone tell me which ones (movie title included)?

The problem is that your paper makes no sense.

Its like making a paper and the theme is jet propulsion technologies in cars. Yes, both are related to engineering, but are unrelated technologies. There is no AI used in movies. The purpose of AI is to allow a computer to make intelligent decisions in real time. Movie special effects are NOT real-time (as they are added in later) so there is absolutely no need for AI.

This is why your question is confusing and doesn't make sense.

3D effects are created using any variety of 3d modellers. popular high-end modellers are Maya, 3D Studio Max, and XSI.Movies like Avatar and Pixar movies are created entirely in those applications.

2D effects and color corrections are added in with programs like Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premier, and Lightworks. Smoke and post-production are usually created in programs like these.

But crowd simulation is different because every agent can move different. Of course there is huge libraries of possible actions but still I am searching for something like that.

example Massive used in huge number of movies.

You can also make your own software. here's a good starting point:

Crowd simulation is crowd simulation. Its not AI. AI is designed to interpret its environment (or ruleset) and create a decision to maximize its chance of success. There are no decisions to "maximize chance of success" in 3D renderings. Those are simply art tools.
