Story board

This is the initial concept for my sfx project. The idea is to film a cinematic piece showing a man slowly turn into a character made completely from lego. The idea's technical aspect will rely heavily on a good 3d model to be produced (artistically with regards to the lego concept and atomically correct with regards to the person being replicated in lego). The main technique to be utilized in order to achieve this would obviously be a great object track and lots of measurements to critically look where the points would be in 3d space to effectively match the animation to the real life footage. Reading upon the technique of matchamation or rotomation leads me to the belief that this idea would work for a full rig of a character as supposed to matching every object of a moving person. The idea is to take accurate measurements of your subject whilst in the production stage (ie distance of feet from cameras iris). With this information in mind and after a camera track has been pulled (if the track is hand help) you then literally rotoscope the animation of your live subject on to the 3d rig.
