First, a word about Rotoscopy: Rotoscoping is an animation technique in which animators trace over live-action film movement, frame by frame, for use in animated films. Originally, 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 This projection equipment is called a rotoscope, although this device has been replaced by computers in recent years.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.
Now! This movie is as real as live. Of course, it would be. It's rotoscoped. If the end result was to appear lively, why animation? Why bother? That apart, it killed the nostalgia, the brand value I have for Tintin. Mercilessly.
