RvB2 Shot 107 Roto Time-Lapse

A look at a fraction of what went into the famous shot in Ryan vs Brandon 2. In addition to what is seen here, roto on Ryan's saber was done with matching subtraction masks, as well as subtraction masks for any contact flashes that occurred behind Ryan or Brandon for proper lightwrap. And of course the compositing itself is not shown.

Also enjoy a sneak peek at the final shot with the official RvB2 glows :)

@DJEDI296 @CanadianKryptonite Silhouette is a dedicated roto/paint application for Mac, Windows and Linux. It's very lightweight but great at what it's designed for :)

poor guy, your eyes must be bleeding. i'm tearing up just watching this >.<

@haitianflagrep36 Haha, this is my job. Take a look at my reel and you'll see this is a walk in the park for me :P

Damn. That's a lot of rotoscoping for one shot (and that was just Brandons saber).

[DJEDI296]

@ncaauwe is that something that works in conjunction with AE, or is it something completely separate? Digging duel of the dorks, btw...good stuff.

[DJEDI296]

i was curious about that, too...doesn't look like you're roto'ing in AE...

[CanadianKryptonite]

whats silhouette? is it a plugin for after effects? how do you round the rotoscoping for the sabers looks real smooth

. you really need to put out a tutorial

What's that music? That sounds like it'd be rad for a lightsaber fight.

You're roto work is always top notch, very nice to see some in-process.
