live actor
Real flesh presence
A live actor is a real human performer, as opposed to an animated character, puppet, or computer-generated figure.
The term appears most often in discussions of film and television that blend techniques: The movie combines live actors with CGI dinosaurs.
In theater, live actor emphasizes the performer's physical presence before an audience, distinguishing stage work from recorded media.
