Abstract: A method and system provides for generating visual animation, including capturing a first take of a scene with a moveable camera, the first take of the scene including a scene tracking marker disposed within a background set. The method and system includes determining a movement track of the moveable camera during the capturing of the first take of scene and capturing a second take of the scene with a user operating a visual animation object on a moveable platform, capturing the second take using with moving the moveable platform based on the movement track. Therein, the method and system provides for electronically merging, using a computer processing device, the first take and the second take to generate an output scene.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for synchronization of movements of an object having multiple elements within a scene. The method and system includes generating an audio broadcast with multiple audio tracks, each track indicating movement instructions for associated elements. The method and system includes distributing the audio broadcast to a plurality of users controlling object elements. The method and system includes recording the scene with the users controlling the elements of the object based on the audio tracks, synchronizing coordination of movement instructions of the disparate but related elements of the object.

Abstract: A method of creating a video of a puppet character comprising filming a scene including a first portion of a puppet character on a first recorded track, filming the same scene including a second portion of the puppet character on a second recorded track, and combining the first portion of the puppet character from the first recorded track and the second portion of the puppet character from the second recorded track together onto a single video recording of the scene with an assembled puppet character.
