Rotoscoping is the process of manually creating animation by tracing over the footage. You can use it to create realistic movements or abstract effects, and it’s a good way to practice animation skills.
To start with, you’ll need to find some footage of people doing something you’re interested in animating. Using a screen recorder such as OBS Studio (for PC), record your screen while you perform an action (such as walking) or watch someone else perform an action that interests you (such as walking). Then, open up the video in Premiere Pro and select File > Import > Video Frames To Layers…
On the other hand, motion tracking is a method used to transfer the movements and positions of an object in a video clip to another 3D model. It’s important to note that motion tracking is not the same as animating. Rather, it’s a way to copy the movements of one object onto another (or multiple objects). You can use motion tracking in both 2D and 3D animation projects. It can be used on its own or alongside other animation techniques such as keyframing or posing.
To create animations you will need a program that can do it for you, for example, Autodesk Maya or Blender, as well as some patience with yourself and your work.
You will also need to plan your animations and map out key moments in the animation before you start working on it. This is important because it means that you will be able to see what works best with your characters’ movements as well as how they could flow from one pose/scene into another.
We hope that this article has helped you understand how to make your own animations and given some useful tips on how to get started. We know that it’s not easy but with enough practice, patience and dedication you can create amazing animations!
