The making of:
South Park
The making of a south park episode begins with the animators receiving a 22 minute script which the voices are then recorded and the animators turn the actions in sketched camera shots to 'bring it to life'. They create it a bit like a comic book and design the characters and any new characters if necessary. Once the characters and backgrounds have been made, the lip sync's and expressions have to be placed on the characters. The audio is then put on it.
Dot
Dot was created using a Nokia N8 phone which was attached to a microscope. To create it they had to have 50 different replacements of dot of which were 3 for each pose. When filming they had to use the necessary character, take the shot, then take the character out to then put the next one on and that the shot and so on. Roughly about 4 seconds of the animation was made a day. Dot was made by an animator who created 2D designs and gave them to a 3D modeller who used a 3D printer to make the character. Once they were printed off they had to put her on wire and paint, then when it came to editing the editor had to use a back plate to remove the wire from the shot.
Peppa Pig
The creators of Peppa pig used CelAction to make the animation. They have 'a workflow unique to our methods of production' which means that they can tell the stories they want with no limitations.
CelAction2D is a professional 2D animation which is often used to create films, TV series and commercials. It is very quick to use as they have effects built into the scene to allow them to be animated and edited fast by animators.
