Did you see the video on that page? …the Sprint commercial?
If they didn’t edit that video afterwards, it must have taken thousands of frames and some damn good artists.
I’ve done this stuff and it is very hard to be consistent. You don’t often cross your T’s in the right place, much less do you remember what you did in the previous frame.

I haven’t tried it yet, but I would like to. Seems very difficult to me, but I have a friend that is able to do it with ease.

I usually have a white board with the hand/letter/etc pre-drawn behind the camera and i just trace it in the air to keep consistency
