Rotoscoping & Cleanup

Here is how this works in practice. We deliver rotoscoping and cleanup — the frame-by-frame work that isolates elements, removes unwanted objects and prepares footage for compositing. Rotoscoping traces precise mattes around subjects for extraction. Cleanup removes wires, rigs, markers and other production artifacts. Our team sets up shot turnover, quality reviews and delivery schedules with Dutch VFX facilities skilled in detailed processing, concentrated in Amsterdam and Rotterdam, served by a set up visual-effects sector.

Here is what we have to work with. We work with industry-standard tools. Silhouette for detailed shape work, Nuke for integration with compositing, and Mocha Pro for planar-tracking-helped roto — selecting the right tool per shot. We handle motion blur by matching blur direction and intensity to the source so roto edges stay invisible. We specialise in challenging elements such as fine hair, fur and semi-transparent material, combining core mattes with detailed hand work. Quality control runs at each stage. We scale the team to meet shot volumes and deadlines.

Here is the short of it. Rotoscoping and cleanup form the foundation of the visual-effects work supporting Dutch feature drama, documentary and commercial shoots heading for the Global Film Festival Rotterdam and the Netherlands Film Festival in Utrecht. The Netherlands has a set up VFX sector. The Netherlands Film Fund's 35% cash rebates draws shoots to base effects prep in the country. Cleanup and paint work also serve documentary, removing distracting artifacts from observational footage where reshoots are impossible — a discipline well tied to the country's strong documentary custom. Our team delivers roto and cleanup as clean, compositing-ready elements calibrated for theatrical, broadcast and streaming finishing, supporting the seamless visual effects that polished Dutch shoots depend on.
