Disney’s New Animated Movies Promise Can Fix A 13-Year-Old Industry Shift

Disney‘s animated movies have gone through changes thanks to technology, but one promising new direction can help fix a 13-year-old industry shift. Animation at Disney has evolved exponentially since the days of black-and-white hand-drawn art that utilized techniques like multi-plane cameras. To keep up with competitors’ advancements, Disney shifted to a digital 2D and 3D animation process in the 1990s. In 2005, Disney released its first fully CGI film, Chicken Little, after having incorporated the technique in small sections of other films prior.
