Very cool Colin! I just stumbled upon this video today while I have been living in the past with Ralph Bakashi watching/listening to such movies as American Pop, Wizards, and Lord of the Rings.

So what Way did A-HA do it in "Take on Me?"

@roetemeteor

They used a more traditional animation style of going frame by frame hand rotoscoping like they did in the old days.

wait wait.. so u photoshop each frame???? then exported as image file, am i right? then imported in an animation software?... it's a lot of work..

@2ratski

True. The path I took for this animation is the long way to go about it. At the time I was limited in the software I had available to me. There are much easier ways to accomplish a similar result.

@iflytoohigh at the end, the only way to get a good rotoscoped clip is frame by frame, softwares doesn't work with rotoscoping
