Research

I carried out some research on Rotoscoping and on some films in which this technique has been used in.

Rotoscoping was first invented in 1915 by someone called max fleischer who used it in his series "out of the inkwell". he also then used this technique many times in his cartoons. the fleischer`s most effective use of rotoscoping was in a film called action oriented "superman". in which superman and other animated figures displayed very realistic movement. which was then used in the warner brother productions producing cartoon geered more towards exaggerated comedy.

this method was then used by walt disney used it very carefully and effectively in snow white and the seven dwarfs.

the very first extensive film in which rotoscoping method was used in was created in China called "Princess Iron Fan" 1941.

Rotoscoping is geneally known for bringing a sence of realism in the larger budget animate films.
