Think 'Full Contact' - that Amiga game by Team 17

..and the Jean-Claude Van Damme animated in silhouette. That was rotoscoped from 'Kickboxer'. it's basically tracing over live action sequences.

Think Prince of Persia

Or Flashback.

so like keying but without a key

It's like using the Pen Tool in Photoshop

only where you are able to keyframe each bezier node so you can create an animated Path.

I've done similar for tidying up chroma keys

i think.

Sounds about right

you can create an animated mask to create a garbage/junk matte for chroma key work making it easier on the program to key out the background (green screen or Blue Screen)

yep that's it

I did a tutorial on junk mattes for the tidying up, but doing lots of work on specific thing without actually widely learning about the stuff has perhaps resulted in my current, or recent, ignorance.

Rotoscoping is simply that -

tracing over frame by frame of real life video footage to get that ultra slick looking animated look - like the games we've mentioned here.
