Question by someone: What programs were used to make the movie Real Steel?
I just recently watched the new DreamWorks movie “Real Steel” and the robots REALLY impressed me. Any idea on which programs were used to make the motions and stuff? I know they had real 9ft tall models of each robot but I don’t understand how they made them move and look so great.

Thanks for any response!

odds are they used Maya and a variety of ‘materials’ and either Final cuts or their own personal editing software sort of like how they made transformers, plus they could of used animatronic work but that has become less frequent so probably Maya by autodesk.
Being an animator myself i’m pretty positive there plus they used green screens etc.
