Rotoscoping - Techniques and Tools for the Aspiring Artist (Paperback, New)

80% of every visual effects (VFX) shot we see on TV and in movies had rotoscoping involved. Adobe and Apple are encouraging editors, filmmakers, and other traditionally non-VFX artists to do their own roto through the inclusion of easier-to-use and more affordable roto tools in their respective Creative Suite Production Premium and Final Cut Studio software suites. Up until now there's been no book dedicated to the increasingly popular technique of rotoscoping. Through illustrious 4-color presentation, this book features step-by-step instruction on the artistic techniques of rotoscoping and digital painting with lessons on: * Articulate mattes * Digital paint in moving footage * Motion tracking * Advanced rotoscoping and digital paint techniques, and much more It also features practical insight on the subject and industry, delving into: * The history and evolution of rotoscoping and the role of the rotoscoper * a typical day in the life of a rotoscoper * how to get a job as a rotoscoper The CD-ROM and companion website feature exercise files, demo movies, and other bonus materials.
