Hand drawing effect- behind the scenes and advice

I feel overall the hand drawing effect is very simple to create. Although a points it is rather time consuming and can become repetitive when editing large clips but the outcome is all worth it.
Here is My step by step way on how to produce this effect...

To begin with, import the clip you wish to add this effect on, into Adobe After-Effects, the programme itself seems rather over whelming as there so many buttons and you feel everything can go wrong, don't worry, just follow these steps.

Be sure to render your clip before you start editing. To begin with, I thought 'oh its okay it'll work without rendering...it wont! Rendering allows us to work on the clip with the brush tool.

  One you've rendered the clip, double click the clip itself and a 'paint' icon will appear in the bottom right corner- nearly close to the fun parts, I promise- the duration is usually set to 'constant' in order to create this effect, you want single frame, feel free to use any duration type you want, but this is the one you need to create this.

THE FUN BEGINS! Me and Connor chose to use a rather small brush size so we could get into smaller parts of the body, If your clip is a close-up shot, I'd recommend using a bigger brush simply because the smaller brush size won't give the same effect. We used brush size 9, this was the perfect size for us as the clips were birds eye view and a long shot, so was the right sized brush for us. You can also change the colour of the lines if you prefer to.

Make sure to have fun with this as much as we did, it may seem daunting and rather time consuming at first, but once you get into the swing of things, you'll fly by.
