Remembering the insane 2D animation work for "Ghost In The Shell" Playstation game opening (1997). Key animators (Production IG) : Toshihiro Kawamoto, Toshiyuki Inoue, Mitsuo Iso, Yoh Yoshinari, Ko Yoshinari, Koichi Arai, Hisashi Ezura, Yasushi Muraki.

And a 30min documentary featuring this incredible hand-drawn 2D animation work. They also used CG for production in a very pioneering way.

Cette intro et l'OST du jeu quel kif à l'époque ! 🥹

Don't sleep on the OST

That wasn’t CGI?

There was CGI, but in this video edit, I focused on 2D shots. Full making of video = link in my tweet.

Et il n’y a jamais rien eu de plus fidèle en animation au style graphique du manga original.

C'est clair, sans parler des couleurs chatoyantes ;-] Après, les premières OAV de Dominion étaient quand même pas mal fidèles aussi dans mon souvenir.

Unbelievable! Played the original game in PS2. I always thought that backgrounds and robots were made in 3d.

@physicallydv mitsuo iso mentioned 🙀
