Animation was once a relatively simple matter, using fairly primitive means to produce
rather short films of subjects that were generally comedic and often quite childish.
However, things have changed, and they continue changing at a maddening pace. One new
technique after another has made it easier, faster, and above all cheaper to produce the
material, which has taken on an increasing variety of forms.
