You ROtoscope my world!

Well, did I say I`ll have guinea pigs for today? WRONG!!! So, I had to go for plan B in order to avoid feeling utterly useless this day. And plan B was...try one of the following:

- light saber effect
- rotoscope animation
- blue screen

After trying to set up, act out and manage not to fall over doing the blue screen shtick, I came to the sensible conclusion that trying a bit of rotoscope action would be safer (though not for my poor eyes, and, as it turns out, for my nerves, given the fact that I don`t have a digital pen, so I had to get it done via...ah....you`ve guessed it...MOUSE). A few hours later and many clicks and drags away...here is a first draft. So imperfect and lacking in potential it makes me want to cry but I`m still going to post it, for no other reason then for the sheer effort that went into making it (yes, even in this un-glamorous state it is).
