“A Scanner Darkly” movie, way back to 2006. Have you seen this animated film? Very cool! Actually they made this movie in live action and with the help of rotoshop they made the movie like animated film. Rotoshop uses an animation technique called interpolated rotoscoping.
Plot Summary:
In a totalitarian society in a near future, the undercover detective Bob Arctor is working with a small time group of drug users trying to reach the big distributors of a brain-damaging drug called Substance D. His assignment is promoted by the recovery center New Path Corporation, and when Bob begins to lose his own identity and have schizophrenic behavior, he is submitted to tests to check his mental conditions.

Star Wars Movie using Rotoscoping Effect
Have you seen Star Wars? Actually, I learned something about animating a film which is the rotoscoping. With the help of the new technology today you can possibly do animated films. There's a lot of software's that ubiquitous now a day. Like the Star Wars movie, they do rotoscoping in their lightsaber effects. Doing some rotoscoping is a bit interesting, but for me its hard to do it hehehehehe I tried once but I didn't make it, too bad.
Rotoscoping is an animation technique in which animators trace over live-action film movement, frame by frame, for use in animated films. Originally, pre-recorded live-action film images were projected onto a frosted glass panel and re-drawn by an animator. This projection equipment is called a rotoscope, although this device has been replaced by computers in recent years. In the visual effects industry, the term rotoscoping refers to the technique of manually creating a matte for an element on a live-action plate so it may be composited over another background.
Here's a sample rotoscoping in Star Wars movie
I saw an artile that talks about the top 5 rotoscoping software and I want to share it with you. I hope this would be helpful to you.
