NEXT-GEN Nescot week 14 - rotoscoping

During week 14 we were tasked with creating a Rotoscope (animated video that is drawn over the top of a live action video) of any video of our choice. For mine I chose "The star-wars kid" video because I think it is very funny and it is one of the oldest videos on youtube.


After getting the video, I used Photoshop (using the timeline window) to draw over each frame using a draft-like style which gave the final video a scruffy and morph-like appearance.
Each second of the video was a total of 24 frames and my video lasted about an estimate of 5 seconds which added up to a total of 120 frames or more.

Originally I wanted to have a static (non-moving) background but I scraped that idea because it didn't appear well with the scruffy affect I was trying to create.

My Rotoscope can be seen below:




Overall I believe that my Rotoscoping was a success because it flows very nicely and has a (somewhat) detailed image of movement made by the image.
