The Importance of Computer Power in Animation

Glenn McQueen, who was a supervising animator for Monsters Inc, spoke to an interview about how the increase in computer power was both good and bad. He said that it gave animators more power to create visual complexity, but with that complexity comes the challenge of making sure all the details in the frame are working properly. "You can do more stuff, but once again, you just start pushing up against the boundaries," he said.
