MPC Film - Creating Scar - Characters of The Lion King

- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- To create Scar, the team began with referencing concept art to guide
the design of the character. The modelling team used this art and photography of lions to find Scar’s shapes and form. After the modelling process, the groom work, rigging and shading began at an early
stage, in parallel with render tests showing the character with fur and textures. The rigging tools continually developed as the project went along, from the real time virtual production rigs, to detailed muscle and skin workflows.
The animation and rigging teams worked together to build on previous systems. Focus was placed on Scar’s nuances from his subtle facial animation, realistic snarls and wrinkles to what happens to the skin and fur as his claws retract. A high level of detail was placed on his eyes and the skin surrounding them, the team even brought in veterinary specialists to learn specificity about the structure. Muscle simulation tools were developed to have greater connectivity with Scar’s skeleton, this allowed us to collide soft tissue with skeleton which helped to preserve correct anatomy and volume.
To make Scar’s fur look as lifelike as possible, a ground-up rewrite of the studio’s fur shader was worked on, as well as melanin-based colour palettes for the artists to use. Groom FX simulations were developed to create realistic effects for wind and rain interactions.
For Scar’s animation, the team studied hundreds of hours-worth of reference clips from Planet Earth, a shoot in Kenya and footage taken at Animal Kingdom to achieve a new level of detail in terms of the characters performance. Scar was entirely key frame animated and crafted entirely by hand. Human facial muscles are very different to that of a Lion’s and so Scar’s facial animation required a great deal of artistic judgment to convey his emotions without losing the realism of a Lion. The animation process was very time consuming, requiring numerous iterations to get to the right level of performance and believability.
Even if we weren’t a fan of the remake . You gotta admit. The CGI and visuals are OUTSTANDING
100% yes!
No doubt, it's amazing how far CG has come since its inception.
Well i mean.......i'm a fan of it😅
LinsterH I thought it was ok. Maybe a 6/10. The acting didn’t seem as strong as the first movie
@@Evening.Cicada yeah i guess
1:47 this honestly looks so amazing it really looks like a real lion
Ikr
It rlly does
it is really stupid not to add it in the movie
yah @_@
I know right!
Everynody gangsta till we have cgi lion documentaries XD
Whoever did the skinning n rigging did a beautiful job! Bravo!
@CGZ HACKS get out. no one likes you
@CGZ HACKS stupid piece of shit
The fact there is no skinning
CGZ, don’t leave link randomly. People could just find your video.
You other guys, don’t be rude and harsh for just putting out a link. It isn’t illegal.
Karen Golar being harsh isnt illegal as well
i cannot imagine what it takes to render this whole movie
Probably 1 and half year vut now they had render farm it takes only 8 months to render this kind of animation avengers infinity took 2 yrs to process lol they use render farm in china
My computer x 20583928472828474339q001938578592947371929858482 times
My computer would blow up the neighborhood as soon as I clicked to render.
my computer would exploide the hole earth if i pressed on render
It would take 10-15 years to render over a single machine. Not kidding, actual insider info
It takes the passion to go into animation and to do something like this.
These lions are so well trained!
Scar looks like Asian lion
One of the most underrated animation work.. This is the first time I can really see the expressions in the face of the animated characters and most realistic talking animals which didn't look artificial or awkward.
Vigneshwaran Murugesan 0:51-0:53, scar looked afraid there
Disney: ( Works hard to make a live action remake of the Lion King which probably took a crap ton of animating )
Literally Everyone: Thanks, I hate it
Po Omega Just my opinion
@@filmbuff1991 yeah, because Simba exposed his lies...
@@thevozhd9846 yup lol he was like “ah crap”
I give a huge respect whoever animated this :0
I dont want to the the splines tbh xD
AMAZING! They're so realistic and move so fluidly!
I have never in my life seen such realistic movements in any animation before. Top-notch quality and pure perfection!
Sir Goose the jungle book live action movie is made by these people and it looks better in my opinion
Sir Goose nevermind you said the movements were really realistic. In the jungle book the animals look more real than in this one cause the lions look a little bit fake. The tiger in the jungle book looks fake too, but his ear moves like an actual tiger which is crazy
Waiting for the Blender Tutorial LOL
ok let's start:
step1: delete the default cube
the next steps should be self-explanatory
you're too funny! 😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha
1st step: Download Autodesk Maya
Step one- install maya
Step two - uninstall blender
Step three - argue about how good blender is than maya
Think about making this all and then your computer accidently deletes it all.
I’d start WWIII
@@SadiqH.A Yeah me too xD
My heart rate will go SSSSSWWWWWWEEEERRRRR
That's what pixar did with toy story 2
Or blender crash and you didn't save your files 🤣🤣😭
I would love to see a full length documentary about the process of making this movie. It’s incredible
I can't deny the amazing technology and artistry that went into creating this. I just hope it gets used for more than a live action adaptation.
Here's hoping that MPC Film gets to work with Favreau again on his dinosaur documentary!
0:12 Spooky scary Scar-letons
Send shivers down your spine
@@WeebooMeebooScar’s shrieking skull will shock your soul
0:31 For everybody that say the 2019 characters don´t have expressions.
Yeah if those emotions were. A bit weirded out, grossed out, a little hungry and tired
Look at 0:51-0:53
@@filmbuff1991 eeyup, simba is angry and scar scary
Fabri axr yup scar was like “ah crap!”
Fabri axr and for scar at 1:28 lol; ruclips.net/video/OGp9P6QvMjY/видео.html
Everyone hates the new lion king remake. I guess it's because none of the characters look like the original but I hope they realize the remake is going for more realism in lions instead of cartoony
i have to agree that looks very realistic, but i dont know why Aslan can express more emotions and it feels more "alive" than a lot of the characters in the lion king
Mostly they wanted to portray as close to nature as possible, animals tend to express themselves through body language and in the remake you can tell that. In nature a lion smiling for example actually is a sign of hostility, so it wouldn't be accurate for the remake that wanted to try animating the lions like real life animals.
@@Wolf-Chalk the problem is that body language doesnt works as they tought, in fact, reminds me to those old movies where they add a moving mouth to real life animals, as a movie they have to show emotions, as in the mufasa death
I agree in that they look very realistic and that is a great achievement for the studio.
@@Wolf-Chalk they barely took advantage from any body language from what I remember, so thats a pretty dumb excuse
This kinda work is beyond anyone's Praising , Just Speechless !
The CG looks excellent and very much like real Lion
This is so much hard work of talented Modeling,Texturing, Rigging, Skining and Anaimation Artists
1:45
The tongue and the teeth are intersecting.
Yeah, also 1:56 the teeth look pretty flat and fake and the lips a bit off. But other than the mouth the lion looks incredible!
@@larryphotography maybe it's because of the shading ?
actually many scenes in this video is test renders so that's not the big deal
These are test renders. None of this is final output.
Jeppe Tofft Oh god XD It looks funny tho.
Amazing how creative MPC are 🥰
this movie should won the best visual effects
And of course, there are many stupid people who are still complaining about the animation being rigged without details they have zero ideas on how hard it's to make these rigs & animations, But for me it was extremely acceptable to the point where you can't even tell if it's real or not they really did a good job!
G the visuals are amazing and very realistic
Sheesh this looks so photorealistic!!
So inspiring to watch! That is one very realistic lion.
How much effort and time was taken seriously it's amazing MPC is great in making photorealistic natural environment and animals seriously it's great best of luck for future projects 👍
Congrats to the team at MPC! Always love seeing your incredible work!
The new lion king sucks, but you have to admit about how much effort everybody did.
Well......i like it😐
LinsterH I do too
How did it suck? It was literally the same exact thing as the animated version just live action.
Scar's song be prepared in the new version, they could do better.
i like how the first colored charcters with shading looks like willd savannah roblox. THIS SO GOOOOOOD
I think it looks more like Testing A which is by the same creator of WS (Wild Savannah)
You guys are rockstars!
I might have to watch it just for the CG / Animation aspect.
Everyone is complaining that the animals in the remake have no facial expression , this video show that the models show movement , it's just that those expressions were never seen the light of day thanks to john favro
Gives me Westworld vibes in the sense that you can control something so realistic
It is a shame that while everyone was hating the movie no one gave respect to the modeling artists. They did a great job, even though it hasn't any mimic like the original movie had. I guess those people deserved more respect.
Really amazing!, contragulations to all the team!
It’s a shame the movie wasn’t as good as its visuals. I think that using the same technology, a real documentary could be made, possibly about extinct animals, only being made to look as life like as this
This looks so real!
Seeing these detailed lion models have rigging pieces amazes me :0 I have rigged a wolf recently and I can tell you, it’s a lot of work and can be difficult. Seeing how well they rigged Scar and Simba is astonishing!! So fluid and life like 😶
I'm gon have trust issues watching Animal planet now or Discovery for that matter
It would be way cheaper to just film a real lion
@@youdeservetobeloved4048 true lol
Looks great without texture or color. The modeling/sculpting is A1 👍
excellent work! .. beautiful to see inevitable to watch!..👀👍
The background music definitely makes me feel smart watching this video
Imagine what Jurassic World would’ve been like if the dinosaurs were animated by MPC instead of ILM regardless of animatronics. I bet they would have looked a lot more realistic.
Incredible work. 👍🏽
Awesome of the big cats in Disney, thanks
Before watching this video I never realized that lions had hair behind their elbows
They do?
Depends on the species, it’s absent in both simba and mufasa meaning scar is a different species of lion.
@@DatBoi-cd3rr why would he call mufasa brother tho
@@DatBoi-cd3rr There mother could be another species of lion because there is no information about her.
Technology ahead of its time
Impressive the visuals are beautiful and realistic.
Creating Scar:
Step 1: Take a lion
Step 2: Beat the shit out of it
Voila!
I'm wondering if "Ziva FX" was used in Maya to create deformities and muscle jiggles to sell the weight and on these animations. Wasn't a fan of the film, but the animations on these creatures were magnificent. Props to all the animators who worked really hard on the film. I applaud you guys!
Magic of Houdini...❤

they took a couple of real lions and put all those cgi circles on it.... amazing
the best cgi MPC and ILM
Wow this is really a hardworked movie.
Omg that's amazing!
It’s sad that they don’t add the music in some of the Live action Movies
Scar seems like a pretty menacing villain for a movie about animals!
much better than realistic) it can be used as reference to study anatomy in motion on that stuff
So impressive
thats why human kind is impressive
Which software is used for this types of character making and background Jungle pls comment
0:49 super Saiyan lions .
Xd
Hands off
Why do the unfinished models looks better?
i have been wondering... how do you get high quality animal skin textures? Do you walk up to a lion and ask him nicely to stand still for a few minutes while you photo scan it
😂
m.ruclips.net/video/i0Su2k6QiPY/видео.html look at this
🔥🔥🔥 Incredible 🔥🔥🔥
Are these animation animated entirely by hand? Or somewhat driven by motion cap and hand animate?
wow nice work 🎧💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Cool
Ya because now the technology is growing bigger and much better then the 90s and 80s 😎
Amazing, ❤️❤️
Scars tail: carrot
0:22
I really wish they would've incorporated Zira and the Outsiders in this version instead of just making it a shot for shot reboot of the original film.
Texture GOD!
Disney: spent millions to create a realistic lion
Also disney: make the video as dark as possible until the hair can’t he seen
LONG LIVE THE KING
R.I.P. - King Mufasa - 2000-2020
That is so awesome!!!!
Beautiful work
There’s at least slight emotion to the face!
Carmine Crincoli look at 0:51-0:53
Great job, it is extraordinary.....in the not so far future actors are mostly animation without knowing from real one
So cool😀
Wow. I had no idea that another VFX house besides Weta had such an advanced software able to simulate muscle and fat under the mesh.
Weta´s Tissue evolved to be Ziva VFX which is comercially available so everybody has acces to it but it is common that big studios develope plenty of in house software.
Ithink Houdini is also used sometimes for this purpose.
They probably used a plugin called "Ziva FX" to makes that possible.
This looks swell.
I ain't buying the PS5 if the gameplay doesn't look like this XD
Amazing 👍👍👍
Awesome!
perrrfect !!! !! !
It's Amazing 🔥
0:58 Ubisoft E3 Demos
1:00 Actual game
Incredible.
I agree that the cgi is outstanding but still I am one of the rare people who liked aslan's cgi more from the chronicles of Narnia
Amazing!
I couldnt believe the last shot was cgi..dammmnn
What software was used to create the animation?
The CGI Kings
k i know it's the process of making it but i can just imagine Scar with a green-blue mane lol 0:45
Super I need many lion king videos
I really had no interest in seeing the remake as It seems movies are just being re made for the profit.
but this level of quality cgi does make me want to see it
Surreal ❤😮
