[@MrTayloreh]

Wow, I'm sad for whatever pocket of the world keeps ragging on the interviewer. I would say he's one of the best interviewers M & T have ever had - he's asking actual questions they haven't been asked a thousand times before (despite the inevitable 'Jesus Vs Frosty' stuff), and he's just nice and doing his job.

It’s amazing they can make so much great episodes with crazy, weird and genius writing ✍️ in so little time.

[@jasminejohnston6393]

Something not mentioned: Matt Stone voices Kenny by muffling his voice with his hand, but all of his lines are scripted even if it can be hard to make out what he’s saying

“nothing says worried like a #8 mouth”

[@katlyndobransky2419]

lol reminds me when the boys tried to animate!!! Love this. I love the characters, I love the games. I love the studio!!! It all rocks!!! :')))

[@simmzzzz]

man... a rendering farm of hundreds of computers for a simple 2D animation.. never would have guessed

[@GamingBearHD]

+Simran Zenov They probably do plenty of test renders, it eases the process. With the time scheduel they have, it's definitly necessary

[@leftyfourguns]

+Simran Zenov South Park is rendered in a 3D engine. All of the textures, materials, lighting, etc. has to be computed. It takes a pretty big rendering process to accurately simulate the look of construction paper like the modern episodes do

[@GamingBearHD]

The show is animated in autodesk Maya

[@leftyfourguns]

+TheBear It's animated in Toon Boom and rendered in Maya

[@KuatoLives99]

all the animation is done in maya

[@mariasvard1701]

When the interviewer asked if Butters was based on him, that Eric's laugh sounded exactly like Butters would xD

[@DangerousDickShow]

The host's haircut is the most offensive thing about this.

[@snazzyyoghurt4182]

the way it's animated makes everything so much funnier especially the face expressions

[@berlyngrey9242]

Fun fact: Trey called Eric his little buddy, his budders and Butters was born.

[@TheWaynelds]

I've messed around with Maya before. It's really complex, but if you know a thing or two about 3D graphics and CGI, then it's really fun. I use a program very similar to Maya called Blender while animating my 2D cartoons, along with Sony Vegas.

mangi1337 mangi1337 I’m not angry that he’s a terrible interviewer. there are ways to get the info across without asking ridiculous questions, the idea is to not sound like a jerk who doesn’t know anything.

[@GreekGodAngus]

​@@graxjpg It actually isn't that bad of a question. That is the standard for American animation but a lot of animation overseas does animation first then the dubbing.
