One popular misconception about animated movies is that they are intended primarily for the entertainment of children. Illustrate another misconception most people have about animated films

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Another popular misconception about animated movies is that they are simpler than live action films.
2. For every second of screen time, twenty-four separate drawings usually have to be photographed. Thus, in an average ninety-minute feature, over 129,600 drawings are necessary.
3. Furthermore, some animators use transparent plastic sheets (called cels), which they layer over each other to give the illusion of depth to their drawings. Some single frames consist of as many as three or four layers of cels.
4. Most animated films are short precisely because of the overwhelming difficulty of producing all the necessary drawings for a longer movie.
5. Feature-length animated movies are usually produced in assembly-line fashion, with dozens of artists drawing thousands of separate frames. Of course, today many animated movies are created entirely on computers.
