I think it is quite concerning how it can be done by anybody these days and that it is probable that people may opt for the cheaper productions. I think animation should always be seen not just as entertainment, but as an artform in itself. Therefore I personally believe that good character animators are still essential. I find some of the most successful animations to be those where you are able to believe and empathise with a character. This can only really be achieved through believing in them, through their movements, character, their posture etc. I think by this increase in low budget uneducated animation it is actually making animation inanimate. It can still be used as a method of story telling but would not effectively be able to communicate emotions or character appeal. The difference between low budget and trained animation is clear to see, and I just hope people don't mind paying a little more money or waiting a little more time for the high quality productions.
