The Johhny Cash Project is a mass collaborative rotoscope music video that caught my eye a few years ago. I had previously never seen such a project undertaken before, and since I had experimented with digital rotoscoping, I was fairly curious as to what the capabilities were with regards to video and animation. I found it to be an interesting showcase of perception, as each frame was painted by a different artist. There is an overall story being told in the film as a whole, and even more individual stories that are told in each individual frame. 

 I also think there is an interesting relationship with how much time one might have spent painting a frame in comparison to how much time it is actually on screen for. A frame almost loses its identity to the video as a whole, but yet gives the video an infinite potential for interpretation.
