Movies - Synthespian


A synthespian is any synthetic actor. A portmanteau of the words synthetic, meaning not of natural origin, and thespian, meaning dramatic actor. The dinosaurs in Jurassic Park
,
for instance, were animatronic synthespians created by Stan Winston Studios. Aki Ross
from the movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
was an entirely computer-generated synthespian.

The term "synthespian" was created by Jeff Kleiser and Diana Walczak of Kleiser-Walczak Construction Company. When they were assembling a synthetic thespian for their project, "Nestor Sextone for President", they coined the term "synthespian".
