I found this article about the end of 2D animation at Disney through BoingBoing.

I have a couple of reasons for posting this here instead of my more general interest blog, Jurieland:

• I think animation is closer to games than live action - everything is artificial, just like in games.
  
  
• It's interesting to watch industries being revolutionized by information technology - even if, in this case, the revolution seems to be very bad.
  
  
• Disney is in the entertainment industry, and so are we. Their struggle to balance creativity and profitability is something professional, commercial game developers have to deal with every day.
