As an animator I can confirm this is indeed how it's done. But with the latest update to Adobe After Effects the process of removing the mannequin's head and the trophee on a bucket has become a lot easier and, my god, a lot faster as well.

[@Weirdalbingo]

But does it really look as good?

[@ladymecha8718]

No wonder why it takes two years a season on average

[@Eroil]

Fuck, you stole my comment.

[@julealero7689]

[@ahhh4074]

There good seasons thi

[@ANigerianPrince]

I love how absolutely none of what they say is accurate.

[@goomba478]

Except for the "Scores of animators' back-breaking labor" part :).

[@notsure9528]

"for obvious reasons"

[@xtzyshuadog]

The Science of Animation has *never* been so clear to me

[@salsamancer]

This is from the season 1 DVD, they had a couple of goofy skits like this. They don't do that anymore though, shame

[@sonicsnout]

I'm saving up for my own orbital space station animation studio. They're getting cheaper on craigslist.

[@Massiveactionradioshow]

The real hero here is that mannequin head on the bucket

[@trexpaddock]

Good day.

[@elmerjfapp5730]

[@mazoku6793]

Wow! Animation sure is hard!

[@aaronreese1530]

[@saltytrey]

[@giantred]

Thanks T.O.M.Y.!

[@Brodysseus113]

Kinda seems like the moon base is an unnecessary step of production

[@B0XMATTER]

Are you an animator? No? Then how would you know!

[@jonsearles8333]

Anybody have any idea what the background music is?

[@Froboy1100]

Jon Searles Zoom Zoom Zoom by JG Thirlwell. But you're gonna have a pretty hard time finding the song on RUclips. Youre gonna have to dig around a little bit.

Don’t know if you still need it but it’s called Optimistic Space Travel
