I'm embarrassed to say that I thought animation was somehow more automated now. I had no clue each micro-movement was still hand-drawn, and that frankly blows my mind, and gives me even more respect for animators.
- lmm 10y agoIt depends on the show. You see more and more CG, especially in cheaper shows, but the AAA shows and movies will still have each frame drawn by a human. And even with CG you'd likely review each frame to ensure it came out correctly.
