Rotoscoping


 I always cover rotoscoping in animation but every time I do a class demo, it is boring because one person is working at any one time, while the others basically watch (but they don't). Struck upon a new idea that feels a bit like grade school -- I gave each of them a "work sheet" which contained a Muybridge photo sequence. I also gave them a blank sheet of paper and a marker. Each of them, at the same time, created a one second rotoscope from Muybridge. Everyone was busy, and everyone has skin in the game. We ran out of time so I have to create the animations later.
