For example, Woodland Hills, Calif.-based Brilliant Digital Entertainment, a specialist in 3-D animation, is designing
animated sports tutorials that feature leading athletes, said president Kevin Bermeister. The tutorials would use
motion-capture techniques and feature a voice-over from the athlete describing his or her form, Bermeister said.

The goal is not only to give instruction, but also to sell equipment. The big push, Bermeister said, is coming from
brand-name sports companies looking for a bigger return on the millions of dollars they pay to sponsor star athletes.

Animators have been using motion-capture techniques for more than a decade, yet there are only a few places around
the world that do it well.
