Thanks! I have a similar question, hopefully you’ll be able to answer 😃 How about rotoscoping? I think that both Star Wars and Star Trek used this, Wars for lightsabers and Trek for phaser fire, how was it done? I honestly doubt they painted over a 35mm film cell, so I imagine they first “developed” the needed frames to some bigger “prints” - big enough for them to be able to draw over them, and then photographed them again ?
