Process and Production - Photoshop - Rotoscoping

During this workshop I learnt how to do rotoscoping in photoshop; this was achieved through the use of an existing video, timeline and frames. It involved drawing over a video whilst in adobe photoshop. 

I begun by opening a new document at the size of 1280 x 720px, then selecting a video layer from file I added a new blank layer which would be used to draw on top of the video. Once I had set up the video in photoshop I began to draw over the video; to do this I used the paint brush tool and drew over each frame. I made the paint brush thick enough to create a full person as I felt that a thin stick figure wouldn't do the video justice. 

I found this technique interesting and I feel all the skills I have used to produce these animations will help me for any future design ideas.
