Rotoscoping is a technique that allows you to create animation that mimics live action video. For example, a live actor may be filmed doing a series of actions, and the animator would have the digital character mimic the actions of the human actor for a realistic animated scene. The rotoscoping technique was invented by Max Fleischer, who used it in his series "Out of the Inkwell" in 1915.
You can also do this in After effect using the tool called 'rotobrush' which pretty musch separated images form the background so it allows you to ove them around.
i like the little mermaid and i personally think that the rotoscoping has been used well. For example when the lets the petals fall you see it going all the way down and off the screen instead of just stopping half way. And the way her hair moves really realistic as you need to remember that she's under water so her hair cant just fall of her shoulder when she moves. And also the bubble, as they appear as they move.
Also the way her fringe gets out of the way when she is swimming forward.
