"How Does Animation Work?" by Tyler Pacana Tyler describes his film as "An overview of how animation is made with traditional, 2D-rigged, stop-motion, and CG techniques." However, I don't think this does it justice. Tyler elegantly and effortlessly explains over a hundred years of changing animation processes using fun and creative visual techniques. He uses whats unique about animation to explain animation - A very clever trick.

Not only is David Tart's The Story of Animation very charming in terms of style, it also essentialises the animation pipeline in a succinct and engaging way; great story-telling too. The Story of Animation from David Tart on Vimeo .
