The relationship between drawing and animation
“Now it’s all done on the computer!” is a statement we often hear when speaking about any digital product. However, in a period in which technological innovation is making great strides, paper and pencil remain essential also for digital production. All of the analog steps necessary to develop an animation product are analysed, from the origins of animation at the beginning of the 1900s, to the first productions of Walt Disney in the 1930s, to the first computer-made feature films in the mid-1990s.
The concept, the narration of the storyboards, the study of the characters as well as the layout of the acting, will always need the magic touch of a pencil.
