Favorite Trend of the 2010′s: Experimental/Stylized CG Animation
I know this has been pointed out and talked about ad nauseam, especially on Twitter but it’s worth noticing how experimental CG was this decade. Whether it’s adapting aspects/techniques of 2D like coloring, smear frames, exaggeration, etc. Or translating heavily stylized characters in the 3rd dimension while still keeping said stylization. And it seems this trend is looking to continue into the 2020′s.
