This site is dedicated to the technique of motion capture for 2D, semi-3D and 2.5D animation. With Adobe After Effect's robust motion tracker and it's puppet tool motion capture can be achieved using only one camera. Most motion capture techniques are applied to 3D models and require thousands of dollars worth of equipment. Mocap for 2D is more of an art than a science, but it's use in animation is just as effective.

Make Your Own Markers For Motion Capture
Markers for motion capture need to be round, light weight and a strong color that is different than the surroundings it will be shot in. All you need is an exacto-knife, cheater (found at fishing supply stores,) green paint and double sided tape. The green stands out from the red tone found in skin colors of all types. It's important that the markers are roughly spherical in shape and stand out from the face.
