Welcome to Halloween Town! In this episode, we talk about the animation style of Nightmare Before Christmas and why stop-motion works so well for the film. We also talk about how stop-motion compares with other animation styles (like the classic Disney 2D-drawn vs 3D Pixar-style). Lastly, we chat about how technology has allowed animators to push the boundaries of realism in animated films, but also how realism could potentially veer into uncanny valley territory.
