Comment of the Day: One-Month Animated Feature
Our post about Ryan Estrada’s quixotic quest to produce an entire animated feature in one month sparked a discussion in the comments about whether it’s possible for anybody to do such a thing.
Robcat2075 did the math and thinks it’s a feasible idea. He explains how in his comment:
Well, lessee…
-If we take 40 minutes as the Academy minimum for a feature that’s 2400 seconds to fill…
-If you shot on 4’s that’s 14400 drawings needed…
-Ub Iwerks famously did 600 animation drawings in one day…
-14400/600 = 24 days, leaving 7 days for painting, backgrounds, post…
It’s possible! A cleverly planned production might get done.
Good luck!
