Abstract:
For the comanches vs. cavalry sequence in Disney′s “The Lone Ranger”, MPC was tasked with complex horse and rider simulations. To achieve this, MPC had to extend its proprietary crowd system, ALICE, to allow for highly artistically directable ragdoll simulations blended with motion captured and animated clips.
