It somehow took all day, but it's finished

This is my final idea, i rotoscoped a friend in separately performing different actions such as pointing reading and generally moving around. I make the people sky arts brand colour to make it more interesting and apart from that the people really stand out so i think it works well. I't is still a little rough around the edges, this is because i didn't have access to green screen or High Definition camera equipment due to the fact we haven't had inductions to them yet. This made using the rotobrush quite hard for the simple reason it was selecting pretty much everything around the person such as walls and carpet. This idea however is much more exciting and engaging than my previous "stage" idea which didn't have enough going on to engage the viewer. Overall i feel this has really pushed me to my limits for now, there were times i wanted to give up on using the rotobrush for the reasons previously mention but i persevered and got a great outcome in the end and this is what i believe animation is all about, persevering, taking it one step at a time so you will get the outcome you really want. The setting is a local gallery, instead of filming i took various snap shots of different rooms and animated them in such a way that mimicked being filmed. As i have a little more time on my hands i will hopefully add more to this animation to give it more depth, i also want to line up the animations at the start to change in time with the music.
