Digital Actors

1. Is this acting or is this animation?
To me, I think Avatar is both acting and animation. Avatar uses real actors to be the the animated characters in the movie. They actually have to do all the face expressions the director wants the animated characters to portray. It still takes actors to be professional and stay in character to be an animation. It is like cartoons, actors need to be in character to have the tone of voice. But the animation is used through most of the movie. Without the animation and graphics, they movie wouldn't have turned out the way it would. It can not be done with animation.

2. Do you think that animated character should be eligible for acting awards?
No, I don't believe that animated characters should be eligible for an acting award because they are not doing the full acting job. An animated character can be fixed while you cannot fix a real like character. The actor is behind the screens and the animated character is presented. The actor should get an award but it shouldn't be for acting. 

3. Do you think that human actors will ever become obsolete? Why or why not?
No i don't think that human actors will ever become obsolete because having all animated movies is boring. Also animated movies take a long time to make. Viewers want to see real people act because you can see how a real person feels and how they react. They don't want to get the wrong idea about how something looks and look at something that is fake. Even though technologies are improving and there will always be something new, I believe that people will still want to see movies done by real life actors. Having a mix of different type of movies is good. It gets a lot of people's attentions.
