It keeps the realistic style of the person while also having the fantasy concept of a doppleganger mirroring his actions. The composition was decent at most times, but I feel like more could have been done with the camera/animation angles. The craftsmanship is very nice and the way that they left the video on a cliffhanger is a good way to get someone interested in knowing what happens next. This animation appears to have been digitally drawn.

It also has the most realistic sense of craftsman ship to it, as the animals are very detailed and non-cartoon styled. The craftsmanship is very clean and well done however this was my least favourite of the animations on this page. While it was well done, the concept was boring and there wasn't much more to it other than a bunch of different animals moving around. The composition was good, though, as the animals were constantly moving around the space.

The animation is completely covering the space. This is my favourite of the three rotoscope animations on this page because of the fun music, bright colours, and the relation to the characters [mine, anyways]. This was a digitally drawn animation that was done in MSPaint. The composition was very well done; utilizing all of the space and constantly moving the focus of the animation around. The craftsmanship is fantastic too, especially for a project that took several months to animate in the Paint program. Finally, the concept is clever and the way that the sounds and music relate to and interact with the characters is very well thought out.
