I think for movie productions Japanese anime uses slightly larger than A4 sheets. There's that KyoAni Kanon documentry where they showed us the evolution of their sheets
http://puu.sh/1k8NH
http://puu.sh/1k8OO
and recently for their past few shows KyoAni have gone even larger: http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg4/ultimatemegax/chuunigenga.jpg

Sunrise & their sheets for Unicorn, http://i.imgur.com/b31SE.jpg
Probably the same size as the large one here http://puu.sh/1k8OO

Am I not mistaken in saying that the "resolution" that an anime is made in depends on the sheet size and the scanning process?

>>403

I think it depends more on the photography process because they always scan in higher resolution than the final video resolution.

Not necessarily, but a bigger sheet allows bigger resolutions. And in KyoAni's case, it's let them go 1080p for movies/OPs and slightly lower for the TV episodes, much larger resolutions than they used back then.

Do you have a link to the clip or at least know which DVD it's from?

Nevermind, noticed the URL.

Don't think so, just DVD.

>>404
If that's the case, why can't studios who already use sheets appropriate for HD video scan them for a final video resolution for 1080p to begin with? I don't get why would KyoAni have just the OP and ED in 1080p, with the rest of an episode in a lower resolution. Is there a significant opportunity cost to doing that?

Found something worth sharing about animators.
http://i.imgur.com/lrZtuJq.jpg

For people who don't know.
Ryota_H is an ex-Gainax animator.
He was the first one to leave the company before Imaishi and everyone.
Now he is a freelance illustrator and works for Trigger here and there.

Blaureiter was CG Artist on Otomo's Freedom.

So that's the person that Bahi was talking to about digital animation the other day. I thought that was one of his web animator friends.

Ryota was actually a web-animator back then when he started at Gainax.

Looks like he had a brief stint as an animator. I guess the working conditions got to him?

That thing about animators who work together often get married, it makes sense.

Asako Nishida and Nakatani Seichi are married, and they worked often together on 90s robot shows at Sunrise.

Didn't Yoh Yoshinari also get married to someone recently?

If you can't name at least 10 animators and be able to notice their scenes please don't talk about sakuga. Even the wiki says that you can't be a real sakuga fan if you just read the wiki and have seen some MADs, you need to be devoted for it every day.

It's bad enough alot of people hate "sakuga fans" so saying this kind of aggressive thing is just silly. There should be no "requirement" to be a "sakuga fan" as long as you can enjoy the animation then that is fine.

I dont get why the animation in psycho pass is like that

is really production IG doing this ?

It suffers from a shitty production, there's probably not much time for animation. Just look at the staff credits, so much outsourcing and multiple animation directors per episode.

Name: Anonymous 2013-03-15 11:30

ok thanks

I was thinking , they give the animation to a rookie studio
because the feeling is that the production is chaotic

great series but it could have been a masterpiece with a better animation and drawings

Sakuga@wiki says Iso did that scene but they didn't mention where the information was from.

Also, Kou wasn't credited for visual effect but Iso was.

it's Iso.

Koh also has detailed digital coloring on the cells but he is using a smooth brush, Iso's brush is sharp.

This sentence in the second comment nailed it, at least for me

"The boom in western sakuga nerds is down to Naruto. Specifically the episodes animated by Norio Matsumoto before the filler hell fell upon the series." Damn that Sasuke vs Orochimaru was awesome.

What got you guys into sakuga?
