Real scene to sketch revealfrom @kevin_zych

[01]

Overview

The creator starts by showing himself observing a scene with a sketchbook in hand, establishing the premise via a text overlay. He then cuts to the live scene of an ice skating rink, overlaying animated, stop-motion style sketches of the skaters as they move across the ice. Finally, he reveals the completed physical sketch in his notebook, holding it up against the real-life backdrop of the rink to show the final result.
