Pencils vs Pixels

2023 · 72 min Documentary
8.6 / 10 · TMDB

A documentary told from the voices of the "second golden age" of animation in the 1990s and 2000s about the rise, fall and rise again of hand-drawn animation. They were trained by animation masters that created the principles of animation, they took animation to heights no one dreamed of - and then came the computer.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Portrait filmmaking — about a person, not an event. Camera close, editing unhurried. This requires patience and rewards it.

Rich material, fresh angle. The film changes your understanding of the subject — or at least makes you reconsider. That's what documentary is for.

Works for those who already know something about the subject and want depth. Newcomers may struggle without context.

Director: Bay Dariz
