    Could someone please give me a tutorial on how this technic is done ?
    (i have after effects cs3 btw).

    In other words, i’m not interested by the graphic design , but only on the way the actors were animated.

    Here’s the finest example of this technic (also used in the film “avalon”)

    right at 2:49 to 3:01 (the little girl smiling)

    Personally I think alot of it is just slow motion shots of the people shot with high speed cameras. Or maybe even slowmowed with interpolation.

    Then composited together, and perhaps with a bit of puppet tool as well.

    The people in the office meeting may have been shot individually on greenscreen.

    I’ve also noticed right at 0:52 to 0:53 in the first video , there seems to be a bit of morphing maybe ? (there seems to be a transition of some sort if you pay attention to the guy’s fists)
