I have just added a video I am working on using greenscreen and rotoscoping techniques. This video is in progress as I haven't quite finished the greenscreen stuff but you'll get the idea. I have overlapped a paintamation on a timelapse of the construction of the Hoover Dam. Let me know what you think.
