Rotoscopers Roundup 9

It's been way too long since I posted one of these, and I don't have nearly as many articles to share as I normally do. I was so busy with my job and my internship last year, that I probably didn't even get half as much written for the Rotoscopers as I usually do.

Since I didn't have as many articles as normal, I elected not to do first half/second half of the year posts like I have been doing, and just do one update for 2019. And I actually meant to share this at the end of last year, but I guess I was so busy I forgot. I just found it in my drafts and figured I'd better get it up.

So anyway, these are all the articles I did last year for the Rotoscopers! I am closing in on the end of my internship though, so hopefully I'll have more to share next time.

Disney+YouTubers

YouTubers all over the internet have been covering Disney songs a bit more frequently lately, so much so, that I thought they deserved their own post, apart from my semi-regular TIIA posts.

First up we have Peter Hollens, of course. Only he could do Let it Go from Frozen, and make it feel completely new. :)



Then we have his wife, Evynne, who, along with another YouTuber, Malinda Kathleen Reese, also recently covered a song from Frozen, For the First Time in Forever.



And then they did a ridiculous Google Translate version. :p



They have both actually been doing a bunch of Disney songs, but I think I'll save the rest for another post. For now, let's move on to someone else.

Sam Tsui recently covered Rainbow Connection from The Muppet Movie.



The group Resound, who has recently had a few viral hits, recently put out their most professional looking video yet, which was a Disney medley.



Tessa Violet did an amazing version of I wanna be Like You from The Jungle Book. This was on repeat just about every time I drove to work for a month after this release. :p



And Alex Boyé did an adorable mashup of songs from the same film with a special needs camp.



And since there was recently a new version of the jungle Book released, it was quite a popular target for covers, and The Piano Guys also did a medley.



And finally we have a very "Old-School" YouTuber, Kartiv2, an Israeli artist who was one of the first people I ever subscribed to. She doesn't do much anymore, but it's always great when she does, as you can see here in her cover of One Jump Ahead, from Aladdin.

Video Blitz 6

First up, Lindsey Sirling has a new album coming out, and this is the first single!



It's amazing! I can't wait for the whole album!

Next up, in case you're not totally sick of Frozen covers, this is an amazing version of Let it go, by Alex Boye.



I had avoided posting covers from this movie on my blog, since there were just SO many, but this one was too good not to share. It's a completely original take, rather than a straight cover like most of the rest.

Next, we have Karmin, one of my relatively new favorite groups, covering their own song, Acapella, with Mike Tomkins, and actually doing it in acapella.



I may like this version better than the original. I wish I could buy this one!

Next up, is another travel video from Devin Graham, featuring Dubai.



This place looks amazing. Dubai definitely went on my bucket list after I saw this video.

Last but not least, here is a Peter Hollens video, this time a collaboration with Kina Grannis.



As a bonus, I'm including an old Kina Grannis video that is so amazing, it deserves to be seen again.
