Description
The Walt Disney Company is often celebrated for starting to use digital coloring and compositing for their animated features when the 1990s began, well before other animation studios adopted that method. But in actuality, TV animation giant Hanna-Barbera was already using such digital-ink-and-paint techniques in several of their TV shows and TV movies, eight years before the first all digitally-colored Disney movie was released! The foxy private toon detective Sam Valentino goes into detail on how Hanna-Barbera played a part in changing the 2D animation industry forever back in the 1980s.
And yes, that is a new trenchcoat Sam Valentino is wearing!
