Hayao Miyazaki once lamented that animation was a mediocre medium that made both bad and good
drawings equal. We prize key cels, etc...because they are the work of a senior animator. And, that work
is the drawing not a finished cel.
There will always be someone producing cels, just not so many. Going the way of
the Japanese woodblock print.
It is sad that you are basing your decisions solely on the name and not the beauty of the object. Miyazaki was a
non-name animator, series, character, etc... I guess there are those seduced by the value and those seduced by the beauty.
We should strive to maintain a healthy balance ...
Sorry abit preachy. Just wanted to play abit of a devil's advocate. |
