CORE II: PRODUCE CLEANED-UP AND

IN-BETWEEN DRAWINGS Prepared By:

Mrs. Genilyn D. Ruiz
CLEAN-UP DRAWING
Clean-up is a part of the workflow in the production of hand-drawn animation, in which "clean"
versions of the "rough" animation drawings are produced.
The first drawings are called "roughs" or "rough animation" because they are often done in a very
loose fashion.
If the animation is successfully pencil tested and approved by the director, clean versions of
the drawings have to be done.
In larger studios this task is given to the animator's assistant, or, in a more specialized setting, to a
clean-up-artist.
The artist doing the clean-ups is responsible for the final line and finished look of the shot.
Clean-ups generally are done on a new sheet of paper.
They can be done on the same sheet as the rough animation if this was done with a "non-copy
blue" pencil.
 This certain tone of blue will be invisible for photocopying machines or grayscale scanners, where
the finished animation will be copied on cels or transferred into a computer for further processing.
IN-BETWEEN DRAWINGS
Inbetweening or tweening is the process of generating intermediate frames between two
images to give the appearance that the first image evolves smoothly into the second image.
Inbetweens are the drawings between the key frames which help to create the illusion of
motion.
Traditional inbetweening involves the use of light tables to draw a set of pencil-on-paper
pictures.
In the inbetweening workflow of traditional hand-drawn animation, the senior or key artist
would draw the key frames which define the movement, then, after testing and approval of
the rough animation, would hand over the scene to their assistant.
The assistant does the clean-up and the necessary inbetweens, or, in large studios, only some
breakdowns which define the movement in more detail, then handing down the scene to their
assistant, the inbetweener who does the rest.
