Drawing over Footage Stills

This concept may be confusing however its actually quite simple. The basics are that I would shoot some footage, after having this footage I will then take stills from it and draw over them, then putting them back into the footage. Although this is still a fairly long process I wouldn’t be using this technique for the entire video. I researched into other videos that had used this technique and the best one I could find was Skrillex and Diplo – “Where Are Ü Now” with Justin Bieber. This is a great example of mixing real footage and then putting hand drawn images over it. It will keep with my sketch theme that I have chosen and it also allows me to have some creativity. Using this technique will also allow me to use some stop motion animation within my project, I will be able to draw an asset like a dolphin and put this into either a still frame or moving video. From here I can then move the dolphin and make it look like it is jumping in and out of the footage or video, by having a stop motion aspect to the video just shows off more of the skills that I possess however I can alter it to fit with my chosen theme. I plan on making a test video to give a small glimpse into the kind of stiff that will be within my project.
