Best Short Film - Animated 2008

"Motion capture by itself is not an animation technique."

OSCARS: Academy Announces Rule 

Changes For Animated Film & Visual Effects

...in the Animated Feature Film category, a sentence regarding motion capture was added to clarify the definition of an animated film. The language now reads: “An animated feature film is defined as a motion picture with a running time of greater than 40 minutes, in which movement and characters’ performances are created using a frame-by-frame technique. Motion capture by itself is not an animation technique. In addition, a significant number of the major characters must be animated, and animation must figure in no less than 75 percent of the picture’s running time.”

If Klimt were an animator, I think this is what his work would look like.

I love that there is an educational angle and the film.
The filmmakers provide worksheets on the website for primary and secondary classes!
