I just don't think CGI is up to manipulating the human face yet. I feel like you can get away with it with aliens or monsters or something that's intentionally foreign, but I have yet to see anything digital to do with the human face that doesn't just look ridiculous.

What's fantastic is that there's a real growing appreciation for performance-capture technology as a tool for acting.

I think CGI is interesting, but it's too expensive and limiting in terms of what you can do shot-by-shot.

For this game, we shot it just like it as if it was a film so there wasn't that much different from doing a film other than some technical things for the costume that had to be done so they could transfer the footage later and make it look animated.

While films are a very visual and emotional artistic medium, video games take it one step further into the realm of a unique personal experience.

Every film that comes out that incorporates CGI or performance capture is a little bit ahead of the last film that came out. You're on the cutting edge for a certain amount of time, and then the new technology comes out.

Games are another place to find work, not only the voice stuff but in the motion capture stuff. It's exciting work.

When I'm filming, I try to get a facial two weeks before I start shooting and then again once I've wrapped. On set they tend to use a lot of make-up, so I like to prepare my skin right before, and then unclog all my pores right after.

It looks better when you do your own stunts, because seeing somebody's face when they're doing them is fun for the audience.

I was utilized because I have a certain face that works well in cinema, and I'm used to making myself look as good as possible.
