Fan art animation I made using an Illustration by Hiroaki Samura from his manga, Blade of the Immortal.
For this animation technique, I used Photoshop to work on the layers and fills and After Effects for the Motion and Camera movement.
ORIGINAL EDIT
On the left is the original art by Hiroaki Samura, and on the right is the version edited for animation. In this process I had to fill in the missing parts and clean up others that I couldn't fill in due to the resolution.
