Live action is used to define film, video games or similar visual media. Photorealistic animation, particularly modern computer animation, is sometimes erroneously described as "live action", as in the case of some media reports about Disney's remake of the traditionally animated ''The Lion King'' from 1994.

The phrase "live action" also ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
