BSA227, Rotoscoping in Photoshop, 29 October, 2016

Things are starting to pick up now that I'm working in PS.  I tried to rotoscope one last time in After Effects but decided that while it was significantly faster this time (probably due entirely to working with one small clip and not the whole movie), the only thing I need from AE now is to turn all the frames black and white in one step (colour correction menu) and then export the sequence to photoshop.  It's more helpful to see what the figures are like in their environment- it's easier to pick up lost bits when I can see them moving with the black and white figures.

 Above, you can see where I've cut out the background of the frame I'm working on and the figure has moved ahead slightly in the frame just below it. I will next change the image to black and white to catch any bits that didn't get caught in AE, then the dark strokes filter, and finally a little bit of line work for emphasis.
