Very interesting, those forums have a lot of information on the production process.

Though I then have another question: Shouldn't inbetween artists be given more focus? As they are the ones who end up making the drawings move. The Key Animators only drawn still images, it is up to the inbetweeners to bring those drawings to life.

One could argue without the Key Animator's drawings, and inbetweener can't do anything, but at the same time, without any good inbetweeners you'll just get a lot of still frames jumping from one to another..
