How do you do those cool effects?

Never mind, I found it. In order to rectify the double post, I will say this: I was thinking heavily about doing a frame by frame video, but it involves DBZ and I don't think I want to buy dvds for one video. So, I guess I could use something I have already, maybe?

You can do it in after effects or photoshop. I would prefer after effects since you don't need to switch between photoshop and premiere to insert frame after frame and can just do it all in AE. Either way it's extremely tedious.

The more you get the hang of doing it, the faster you get at it. I did around 40 masks in a day before.

How is it done frame by frame in After Effects? Is there an Eraser thing like in Photoshop??

You animate masks around what you want to cut out.
