[adrianedawndawn]

YES!!

[NewAgeDirector]

Great video keep up the good work.

[mashamatt]

@monokrome What programs automate rotoscoping? I've been working with hand drawn stuff, but I haven't come accross that software that would just do it for me, except in video editing software, but it just doesn't look the same...Thanks

[mashamatt]

Wow, Nice, Very Creative Rotoscoping. I love the way you simplified the drawing without losing the effect. I'd love to see the video done full length, but I know How hard Roto is. It takes me like an hour to do a second of video footage at 24 fpm.

[ribenawrath]

@monokrome erm..this is exactly what rotoscoping is :)

[MagicTurtleBoxTV]

I LOVE YOU ... this is SOO cool ... gotta love Mr. Walken.

[qzniel]

do the whole song, then i'll be impressed.

[rjn6337]

@monokrome Not sure what you're thinking, but that is the definition of rotoscoping.

From Wikipedia: "Rotoscoping is an animation technique in which animators trace over live-action film movement, frame by frame, for use in animated films."

[WarPig15]

where is the rest????? OMGG!!!!

[captainFXCKINGmagic]

how many fps is this?

[rjn6337]

@captainFXCKINGmagic 12 if I recall. The source I had was 24 but that would have killed me in the little time I had to do this.

[dmcnaught666]

awsome vid, i can see you spent time on it, Do the whole vid just for fun then send it FBS himself, he likes rotoscoped stuff for when he djays to use on the screens as visualizations

[kudjo24]

@dmcnaught666 thats a rele good good idea

[kudjo24]

i want the whole thing done like this now!!!!!

[skeptikulo]

O cara é uma bichona! Ui!

[NiceGuyJosh1]

the first bit is my favourite, you should have done it all like that

[elviswolfboy]

I was wondering how you got the original into your program in order to use it as reference?

[kenny9648]

WOW!!!! Great work!...but it's too short! :-(

[Cyrunix]

@kenny9648 LOL too short?

XD this must of took hours for him to do

this is very hard stuff

:D

[milovachan]

@Cyrunix for real dude. people don't seem to realize you have to hand-draw every single frame. that or they don't realize that a second on film is 24 frames... (albeit usually peeps roto closer to 15 -18 fps)

this is a great roto btw, excellent blending of the character animation from the source and new interpretive imagery.

[SuperiorRobot]

did flash interpolate the keyframes?

[rjn6337]

@SuperiorRobot No, all handdrawn in Flash CS3 using a tablet. I used After Effects to piece it together and do a few tweaks.

[SuperiorRobot]

omg that is so rad. great job! what software/hardware please?

[tootyfruity69]

Awsome. Great job .

[wallyanimations]

ow yeah, this is fun,

i like the swipes of his hands and the swirl when he turns

[churraheefilms]

baah! :D AWESOME!

[ku7uk3]

Excellent - I want to see the rest!

[Aluior]

Neat!

Must have been alot of work to draw every frame.

[TakronRust]

yeah, if they're using standard speed. Its 30 frames per second and the vid is 34 seconds long so...it's quite a few.

[thecheatisnotdead42]

Animation usually happens on 12 frames a second, so it's not quite so bad.

[thefirstryandaniels]

Nice.

[cyrexFFXI]

Awesome
