In animation, there are 24 frames per second!. At least that's the way it used to be done!. In a 23 minute episode (that's how long it is when commercials are taken out) there are 33,120 frames!. But, since the invention of computers, artists only have to make about 1/10, so only 3,312 frames!. also, there are inbetweeners, which are the people that make the movements in-between the main frames!. The inbetweeners are normally novices that are just beginning in the industry!. A head animator will probably only draw about 1/5 of these, and the inbetweeners will draw the rest!.
So Head Animator: 662 frames
In betweener: 2650
Computer: 29,808Www@QuestionHome@Com
