About this service

Summary

I offer dynamic character animation using the rotoscope technique, transforming live footage into vivid, hand-drawn sequences that capture true-to-life motion and emotional depth. This technique combines the realism of live-action with the artistry of animation, resulting in characters that feel authentic and compelling. My unique approach ensures each project has a distinct visual style that immerses audiences and enhances storytelling.
