How did the Animatronics ACTUALLY Work? (Movie Behind the Scenes)

The Five Nights at Freddy's movie is officially out, but instead of talking about the plot or lore like a normal person, I thought I'd do what I do best and take a peak behind the curtain to learn how the animatronic props used on set actually work!

Interestingly this video kinda made me realise one of the reasons Afton might have made the springlock suits: Immersion We know that even the oldest suits had at least decent facial movements (arguably beyond what was being done irl at the earliest points of the timeline), well one of the problems with normal fabric suits for performers would be the lack of those movements so William needed a solution to keep the movements while still allowing actors to use the suits. Since he'd already made the movements work with the animatronics he decided to just retrofit animatronics into suits, giving birth to the springlocks. Now all of this ignores the fact he could have made a normal suit with just facial motors, but it's an interesting explanation for a very stupid idea

@revelare_xvii6269 8 ай бұрын

If he had the tech, Afton probably would just done the same thing that Jim Henson did with the animatronic suits in this movie.

@NayvieNoir 8 ай бұрын

I’ve seen a lot of theories for why Afton decided to go for the springlock suits, but have we considered: Afton loves murder. It’s entirely possible he enjoyed when the locks would fail and skewer some hapless employee.

@corialicetales5249 8 ай бұрын

I mean he was well aware that the animatronics were dangerous towards the staff since the late 80s and he still kept them. He could have got rid of them and get new ones but he didn't. He chose to put people's lives in danger and getting them killed for his own pleasure. It puts a lot meaning behind what William said to them "I made you"

@jmurray1110 8 ай бұрын

The common explanation is he’s a genius inventor who’s also a total idiot who was really obsessed with animatronics that could move around on there own and spring locks was the first idea him and Henry came up with It’s also just an insane person who abuses his kids so probably doesn’t have a sense of morality

In the novel _Five Nights at Freddy's: the Silver Eyes_ (and the comic book adaptation) there's a scene where William Afton operates a control panel filled with buttons which each perform a tiny individual movement for one animatronic, and uses it to make them dance to impress a group of teenagers-keep in mind he was pretending to be a harmless night watchman named Dave in this instance-which indicates that the in-universe characters probably operate closer to the puppets made by Jim Henson's Creature Shop than they do to actual animatronics like you'd see at Chuck E. Cheese.

I just saw Dawko's behind the scenes video of the on-set meet and greet with the animatronics, and the "face" Freddy appears to either start walking or take one large step. I was hoping you would know if any info had come out about their capabilities on that level. Foxy is shown on a crane rig, but for the meet and greet the 3 were not obviously craned or otherwise secondarily supported. They do show the stunt suits in the video too, so I'm sure they're not walking around great by any means. But even some advancement on that front would be super interesting. Upon further review, the 3 suitable animatronics are the suit versions. The extent of the puppet head's capabilities is very impressive though, and the in-suit actors and puppeteers do a great job of making it look really incredibly seamless and maintaining a proper 'stance' outside of movements. I was lead astray by a shot from the back that I didn't realize was actually a different time they were filming where they clearly are the not-able-to-be-human shoulder joints/endo bits. What I get for clicking through his video instead of just knuckling down and pretending to have an attention span, lol. Yours I watched and enjoyed, so props to the chef c:

counterpoint on your vindication rant about the springlock suits if they're supposed to be a cost-cutting measure, then arguing that the expensive premium workshop who built many custom models for different scenes didnt do the cheap but unsafe cost cutting measure is quite goofy (not saying they make much irl sense regardless, just that it's not an argument you can make)

The movie spring trap suit had a rib cage that was held open by spring locks. What up with that?

@scp-049lover8 8 ай бұрын

My headcannon is its part of the mechanism that instead of holding animatronic parts back, is designed to hold the suit on the user, basically they clap down on the users torso(not hard obviously)to hold the suit on their body, so it doesn't wobble while they move. My reasoning is because it's better for stability than strap harnesses, makes them easier to get in and out of, during the heyday they where safe but with their age showing they have became unstable and are prone to snapping their locking mechanism(on the back of the ribs, the upper parts are based apon gears that lead back)which ofc causes the harness system to snap back into its "default" setting which ofc causes a springlocking.
