Actually, the opposite is true. If an animator is storyboarding an episode, he will most likely not be animating on the episode. That's the norm -- for Shida, for anyone, except the odd solo superstar.DragonBalllKaiHD wrote:Also, I'm not sure why everyone was shocked to see Shida drawing cuts for yesterday's episode. If Shida was assigned to storyboard an episode, he will almost certainly key animate, if his time permits. His position as a top-tier key animator with a seniority status allows him to do whatever he wants. If he asks a series director, he gets it.
You have a very bad habit of coming across like you knew something all along after it's been revealed. Careful with that. It can rub people the wrong way.
