I have a 10-second video clip where the main subject, an old lighthouse, is missing the top. I want to recreate the top of the lighthouse and an imaginary beam of light coming from the lighthouse, with a sketch-like raw scribble animation that sits directly on the subject. The line work should feel hand-drawn and imperfect—think colored pencil strokes that wiggle slightly. You’ll receive the clip in 4K 30 fps MP4 and a photo of the lighthouse showing the missing top to use as a guide. Please return: • A version of the video with the scribble baked in, same resolution and frame rate. Feel free to use After Effects, Animate, Procreate, or any tool you trust, as long as the final look remains true to that raw, sketchbook style. Timing is straightforward: the drawing should fade in during the first 2 seconds, then stay visible for the remaining 8 seconds. Attached are: 1. Side-by-side photo of the lighthouse with and without the top - to use as a guide to sketch the top. 2. Example of scribble animations. 3. Example of the animation of the rotating beam of light.

Hello, I see what you need—a hand-drawn top for that lighthouse, plus a beam of light that feels real and a bit rough around the edges. I'll start by looking closely at your photo to get the proportions right, then I’ll create the sketchy top and the light beam in a way that feels like it’s part of the original clip. The animation will fade in smoothly in those first two seconds and stay consistent with that raw, imperfect vibe you want. I’ll keep everything in 4K and match the frame rate so it looks sharp. Before we dive in, can you tell me if there’s a specific color palette you have in mind for the drawing? Also, do you want the light beam to have any specific movements or effects, or should it just rotate steadily? Ramandeep K.

Hello, We will recreate the missing lighthouse top directly over the footage using the provided photo as the visual guide, then animate the rotating beam of light in a raw, hand-drawn scribble style. The line work will have subtle wiggles and imperfect colored-pencil strokes so it feels genuinely sketched rather than digitally perfect. We’ll animate the drawing fading in over the first 2 seconds and keep it visible for the remaining 8 seconds, while tracking and aligning it naturally with the lighthouse throughout the clip. The final will be delivered as a 4K 30fps video with the scribble animation fully baked in. Thanks

The missing lighthouse top and hand-drawn beam need to feel like they belong to the footage, not like a clean digital overlay pasted on top. The tricky part here is keeping the scribble raw and imperfect while still matching the lighthouse position and making the beam sit naturally through the full 10 seconds. I’d build the top from your reference photo, animate the beam with a subtle pencil-like wobble, and fade the drawing in over the first 2 seconds as requested. I’ve handled short-form motion edits where drawn elements had to lock onto real footage without losing that handmade look. 4K delivery and preserving the original frame rate are both straightforward on this kind of compositing job. A small polish point I can include is light texture variation so the lines don’t feel mechanically repeated. - Do you want the scribble in a single color, or should the top and beam use slightly different tones? - Should the beam rotate/pulse based closely on your sample, or just keep the same rough visual style?

Hi, I can recreate the missing lighthouse top and animate the imaginary light beam directly onto the footage with a raw, hand-drawn scribble style. I have 5+ years of professional experience in video animation and professional video editing, and I can build the artwork to match the lighthouse perspective and movement while keeping the lines intentionally imperfect—like colored-pencil strokes with subtle natural wiggle rather than polished vector graphics. I’ll use the supplied reference photo and animation examples to match the intended look and feel. I can work in After Effects, Animate, or a mixed workflow depending on what gives the most authentic sketchbook result. The drawing will fade in smoothly over the first 2 seconds, then remain visible for the remaining 8 seconds, with the rotating beam integrated naturally into the scene. The final delivery will be baked into the original 4K 30fps video with the same resolution and frame rate. Would you like the beam to feel subtle and hand-sketched, or more energetic and visibly rotating?

The success of this shot will come down to style accuracy more than heavy editing — the lighthouse top has to read clearly, but still feel like a hand-drawn imperfection sitting right on the footage. I’d recreate the missing top from your reference, add a scribbled beam with slight organic wiggle, and make sure the reveal in the first 2 seconds feels smooth rather than abrupt. I’ve worked on short animation overlays for videos where the drawn treatment needed to stay loose, textured, and human instead of overly polished. Since you already have guide images and style references, that makes it easier to match the look closely and keep the process efficient. I can also make the linework a little uneven frame to frame so it feels naturally sketched. - Do you want the lighthouse top lines to stay visible the entire 8 seconds after the fade-in? - Should the beam keep a constant width, or taper slightly as it extends outward?

A 10‑second 4K video where the missing lighthouse top and rotating beam are rendered as raw, hand‑drawn scribble animation, fading in over the first two seconds and staying visible for the rest. I have delivered After Effects projects that blend hand‑drawn pencil effects with motion graphics, including a recent 4K heritage animation that required precise sketch overlays on moving footage. I know the challenge is keeping the imperfect pencil strokes aligned with the camera motion while preserving the natural wiggle, something many overlook and ends up looking rigid. I will fine‑tune the overlay until the sketch feels authentic, with unlimited revisions and smooth communication.

Rebuilding the lighthouse top as a rough sketch overlay only works if the line movement feels alive instead of looping like a stock effect. Your brief is nicely specific, so the main focus would be matching the missing structure from the guide photo and giving the beam that uneven colored-pencil energy while keeping the timing clean: fade in for 2 seconds, then hold for the remaining 8. I work on composited animation pieces like this where real footage needs stylized drawn motion layered directly onto the subject. The good part here is that the clip is short, so attention can go into making the wobble, opacity, and placement feel intentional rather than rushed. I can also deliver the overlay with clean visual integration so the final baked export stays true to the raw sketchbook feel. - Is the camera completely locked, or is there any shake/pan in the 10-second clip? - Do you want the light beam to feel subtle and dreamy, or a bit more noticeable and graphic?

I can certainly animate the missing lighthouse top and the custom light beam using a raw, hand-drawn aesthetic—first cut in 24-48 hours. I will utilize frame-by-frame masking to track the lighthouse structure while applying a jittery, high-contrast sketch overlay to match your creative vision. Would you like the scribble lines to pulse at a specific frame rate to enhance the organic feel?

I will recreate the lighthouse top and animate a hand-drawn, colored-pencil scribble overlay that precisely tracks the tower and a rotating beam. I’ll rotoscope the 10s clip, paint the top from your reference photo as rough sketch strokes, and animate the beam as layered, slightly jittering pencil lines with subtle opacity and wobble to mimic hand motion. The sketch fades in over 2s, holds for 8s, and I’ll render a baked 4K30 MP4 matching your source so the overlay is seamlessly integrated.
