Reblogged from armadilloterrorizerThis is for oppressorplutonium who yesterday asked us: How long does it usually take to create an animated cg 3d movie?
I found this image The Alchemy of Animation by Don Hahn. He put this image together to represent the time span that it might take to make a traditional 2D animation, not quite a 3D one like you asked but I thought it might help give you a better idea what kind of planning goes into making an animated film. On a side note Don Hahn did say that it often took longer than 3 years to make a 2D film.Source: The Alchemy of Animation
Reblogged from bryarlyThis was a big deal once.

and they should! but… my… we’ve come a long way
