Maroon 5 : Girls Like You

“Girls Like You” spent seven weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The music video came out in May 2018. We worked on it.

What we did:

  1. Rotoscopy. Our roto work kept the transitions seamless.
  2. Marker cleanup. We removed tracking markers from some of the shots.

What those two jobs mean. Rotoscopy is tracing a subject frame by frame, so it can be separated from the background. Tracking markers are small dots placed on set so a shot can be tracked later. Once the shot is tracked, the dots have to go. Both jobs are slow. Both are invisible when done right.
