Clean, Production-Ready Mattes.
RotoEdge delivers frame-by-frame rotoscoping for feature films, television, streaming platforms, commercials and digital productions.
Our artists isolate characters and objects with clean, consistent edges, so mattes integrate into compositing, cleanup, background replacement and wider VFX pipelines without rework downstream.
The Shots That Slow Pipelines Down.
Roto is rarely difficult on a clean silhouette. These are the shot types our artists work on every day.
- 01
Hair & fine detail
Wispy hair, flyaways, curls and semi-transparent strands, preserving the natural character of the subject.
- 02
Complex motion
Fast action, overlapping limbs, motion blur and changing silhouettes, refined for natural motion continuity.
- 03
Cloth & silhouettes
Flowing fabric, loose garments and overlapping folds with accurate contours throughout the shot.
- 04
Multiple subjects
Separate mattes for several people and interacting subjects, kept consistent from frame to frame.

Rotoscoping Questions.
Can you roto hair, motion blur and semi-transparent edges?
Yes. Hair and fine detail, motion blur and transparency are core parts of our rotoscoping work — see the breakdowns on our rotoscoping work page.
Do you work on single shots as well as full sequences?
Yes. We take on anything from a single shot to complex sequences, and scope each project before work begins.
How do you keep client footage confidential?
We work under Non-Disclosure Agreements and secure production workflows, so client assets stay confidential at every stage of production.
What do you need from us to send a quote?
A sample of the footage or the plates, frame ranges, a shot list, any edge or motion-blur notes, your delivery format and your deadline.
Can you also handle paint and compositing on the same shots?
Yes. Many projects combine roto with paint & cleanup, keying and compositing, delivered by the same team.
