2. Stay on Topic

Generally ensure all posts and comments are relevant to the theme of animation. Leeway will of course be given for the natural flow of conversation

3. No Spam

Avoid spamming the subreddit with repetitive messages, self-promotion, or off-topic links. Excessive posting or commenting to dominate conversations is not allowed.

4. Be Mindful of Spoilers

Ensure spoilers are tagged correctly. See here.

5. No Linking Pirated Material

Just to be safe, don't directly link to pirated content. General discussion is allowed within limits.

6. No Porn

Some shows/films feature nudity or erotica. These are usually allowed but must be tagged as NSFW.

Basically: Don't be an asshole

On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

What are some great animated movies that have a simple/limited art style? (lemm.ee)

submitted 7 months ago by TheImpressiveX@lemm.ee to c/animation@lemm.ee

I'm looking for something great that has a very simplistic, almost minimalist, art style. Something where the art or animation isn't the main focus, but the story is.

The only one I can think of right now is It's Such a Beautiful Day directed by Don Hertzfeldt. It's literally just stick figures drawn on paper, but he tells an incredibly bleak yet moving story, and believe it or not is considered one of the best animated films of all time.

I would also put South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, but I think we all expected that from South Park.

Can you think of any other great movies with a simple art style? I'm not saying it has to be exactly like It's Such a Beautiful Day or South Park, just something low on visuals and high on storytelling.

Inspired by the post by @BoozeOrWater@lemm.ee on !movies@lemm.ee, this post is for animated specific movies.

Please feel free to discuss your favourite animated films. As in the other thread, ideally one comment per movie so that other people can discuss and vote for specific films.

Please use spoiler tags for any major plot points discussed.
