Pencils vs. Pixels Interview: Tom Bancroft Talks Animation & Inspiration

Pencils vs. Pixels Producer Tom Bancroft reveals the inspiration behind the documentary which tells the story of 2D and 3D animation. In this interview, Tom also talks about the people that he brought on, including Ming-na Wen, what was left on the cutting room floor, and more.
Pencils vs. Pixels is a celebration of hand-drawn animation and an exploration of how the Disney renaissance of the late 1980s and early1990s led to an animation boom that was quickly upended by the computer revolution that followed.

I was around as 2-D was on the way out and I too use physical art supplies and I’ve given digital art a chance as I do have an iPad and iPhone but if I were to it would be on my iPad for obvious reasons but I was born in 1998 so it was just a little after and the latter of the Renaissance Era with Tarzan or technically even Fantastia2000 even though it was released in I believe a or two before New Year! Upto that point & the technology really didn’t start on too well until I would say 15 years old that’s a lot of change in 10 short years.

I just got it from iTunes though I was wondering will this be available on physical? Because Id love to get my hands on it. I love this sort of thing I didn’t even know this was potentially even a thing. Also they have stumbled mightily in the last few years atleast Disney Animation anyway. I have so many favorites I’m going to say Who Framed Roger Rabbit as we will likely never have a sequel to this also I’m going to cheat a bit and say the first 15 years of PIXAR and to some extent Lilo&Stitch actually.
