In the Equestrian sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Rotoscoping delivers measurable results that transform how equestrian professionals communicate with their audience.
Equestrian video production must capture two athletes simultaneously — horse and rider — and the communication between them that defines the sport. The technical demands include tracking a 500kg animal moving at 60 km/h over fences (show jumping), maintaining fluid follow-focus during collected movements (dressage), or covering cross-country courses that span several kilometers of varied terrain. Drone footage is particularly valuable for cross-country events but must comply with strict regulations about flying near animals. The equestrian audience is predominantly female (75-80%), affluent, and deeply invested in both the sport and the lifestyle around it — content that includes stable management, horse care, and tack reviews resonates alongside competitive footage. Horse sale videos are a significant commercial segment, with breeders investing 1,000-5,000 euros per horse in professionally produced presentation videos that directly influence sale prices at auction. Club and competition budgets range from 1,500 to 8,000 euros, while FEI-level event coverage reaches 30,000-100,000 euros.
Sports fans consume 3x more video content than any other audience segment. 78% of sponsors now require professional highlight packages as part of partnership agreements. The challenge is capturing fast-paced, unpredictable action with broadcast-quality results.
Multi-camera coverage, slow-motion replay, and real-time graphics require specialized equipment and expertise. Each sport has unique filming requirements — from the wide aerial shots needed for football to the tight close-ups essential for boxing.
The rise of social media has created demand for immediate content delivery: highlights within minutes, not hours, of the final whistle.
A Ligue 1 club implemented a full-season video strategy with match highlights, behind-the-scenes access, and player profiles. Social media engagement increased 285% and merchandise sales rose 34% driven by emotional video content.
A major city marathon used drone coverage and multi-camera setups at key points. The recap video reached 5M views and sponsor visibility metrics exceeded targets by 180%.
Professional sports video delivers massive engagement: slow-motion replays generate 4x more shares than standard footage, and behind-the-scenes content drives 67% higher fan loyalty scores.
For sports organizations, video content directly drives revenue through sponsorship activation, ticket sales, and merchandise. Clubs with strong video presence report 40% higher commercial revenue from digital channels.

Rotoscoping is frame-by-frame masking of subjects when green screen was not available or when you need to isolate elements within existing footage. We trace precise mattes around people, objects, or regions using Silhouette and Mocha Pro, handling motion blur, hair wisps, and semi-transparent areas like glass or fabric. A 5-second shot at 24fps means 120 hand-refined frames — this is labor-intensive work that we execute with sub-pixel accuracy. Turnaround is 2-4 days per shot depending on complexity. Deliverables include the alpha matte sequence (EXR or PNG) and a pre-composed version ready for your compositor.
You receive: final composited shots in ProRes 4444/EXR, VFX breakdown reel, individual element passes (beauty, diffuse, specular, alpha), and project files.
Software: Nuke, After Effects, Houdini, Maya, Cinema 4D | Tracking: PFTrack, SynthEyes | Render: Arnold, V-Ray, Octane | Output: EXR 16/32-bit, ProRes 4444, DPX
