    "One thing is sure like death tho: for the same budget you get better 3d than 2d."
    Bit of explanation about this:
    If you have a budget and an idea. for the same budget you with 3d you can play a lot more with the cinematography: camera movements, pans, close ups and such, which are quite important elements in the storytelling.
    So given the same brief and story and storyboard 3D comes out way cheaper than 2D.

    Surely it all about the idea and taking advantage of the medium capabilities to achieve the best result. But again, animation today had a massive spread because has become cheaper and so is quite affordable for advertising purposes.

    I'm not telling that 3d is better than 2d. I'm just stating the obvious.

    On a related note: i had the chance to speak with a girl who worked for "the corpse bride". It took something like 3 years and 5 set on continuous production to get done. I think that in 3d it would have take around a year (employing the same number of people), and costed way less. But, evidently there money there wasn't the point.

    • Your corpse bride story makes me realise I do not under-stand the differences from an industry/technical point ...Orbit
    • of view. I would have said, naively, that TCB was a 3d animation.Orbit
    • I was just considering it purely from an aesthetic point of view.Orbit
