Abstract
In this article, we present a rotoscoping method that takes advantage of ubiquitous multicore processors such as CPUs to assist an artist with the rotoscoping process. We have implemented this rotoscoping method as a plug-in to a commercial compositing application to demonstrate how multicore processors can be applied to practical applications.
