Anastasia

Anastasia is an animated movie from 1997 made by 20th Century Fox. I just recently rewatched it for the first time in years after finding out that it's on Disney Plus. As I watched I noticed aspects about the backgrounds or certain items in the movie that make it so unique. When you look closely, you begin to realize that nearly nothing in the background moves, the backgrounds all look like paintings and the only moving aspects are the characters. Another thing that makes this movie so unique is the use of 3-D models throughout. Things as big as a train to things as small as Anastasia's music box are 3-D models that have been mixed with 2-D animation. This movie is definitely underrated and after working with both animate and computer modeling, I have a newfound appreciation for it.
