This animation is exactly the same or very similar to some investment firm commercial that's been around for a year or two.

Looks really cool aesthetically, so I'll probably check it out...

Hopefully it's not just Philip K. Dick's insanity reaching beyond the grave to try and brainwash me into being a Scientologist... :nervous:

Yeah, lol. I hate those commercials.

And I've seen some independent films that have used this type of animation. I hate independent films....

I'm pretty sure it's just cell-shading, which has been around for quite a while, but gained some public notoriety when the Sega Dreamcast console launched some years back, and seems to have steamrolled its way stylistically into the pop culture mainstream...

Perhaps he was just referring to the fact that it was shot as a live action film and then turned into cell shaded animation... :conf:

looks strange....almost disorienting. i'd check it out - but have a feeling that i would have preferred it if it was the real actors, and not some cell-rendering animation or whatever of them. who knows, have to see the real deal first to really make any judgement

Meh, I'm not really feeling the animation

You guys all gotta see Waking Life. That movie is directed by the same guy, and uses the same animation technique. A Scanner Darkly really isnt doing anything new. thats not saying its going to be bad; in fact i think this is gonna kick some ass.

i saw that.

they take video and stencil in the outlines overtop with digital canvases every couple of frames and fade between the frames they do to create that effect.

wired magazine's cover story was all about animation in hollywood.
