Vimeo user Kojer from Seoul, South Korea has put the animated characters from Japan’s Studio Ghibli in the real world. Read on further to see how he accomplished this impressive feat and enjoy the results.
Studio Ghibli In The Real World
To create the final piece, KOJER employed rotoscoping (outlining characters from the film’s individual frames), Touch paint (an open source software), replaced the skies, created the natural sunlight and appropriate shadows and reflections. Color correction and graphic effects were also used.
You don’t have to be familiar with the characters from Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away or My Neighbor Totoro to appreciate the work.
