Episode 67 : 3D vs. 2D Animation and Diversity in Animation ft. Prasanth in India

Author: James Candland December 18, 2025 Duration: 14:26

Welcome to the second part of our conversation with my friend Prasanth in India. We are talking how diversity in culture has been reflected in Animation with movies like Rio 2. We are also talking the music of Rio 2 and the direction animation has been taking recently.


We also talk about Klaus and how it achieved a 3D look with the 2D animation. And movies like Treasure Planet and the Spider-Verse which used a mix of 2D and 3D animation together.


Make sure to follow the podcast to be in the loop when the third part of our conversation comes out!

I'm going to start sharing scripture verses in the descriptions

Alma 30:44 The scriptures are laid before thee, yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the ⁠earth⁠, and ⁠all⁠ things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its ⁠motion⁠, yea, and also all the ⁠planets⁠ which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.

Welcome to Rupees Over Ramen, the show where we discuss Animation, Storytelling, and tons of other nerdy stuff.

We'll be talking with fellow artists and storytellers. Good times are ahead, so grab a nice hot bowl of ramen, some chopsticks, and join in on the discussion every month ✌


James Candland hosts Rupees Over Ramen, a monthly conversation built for anyone who lives in the imaginative worlds of animation and story. This isn't a formal lecture, but more like pulling up a chair in a studio lounge. Each episode, James connects with fellow artists and storytellers, digging into the craft behind the cartoons and the narratives that stick with us long after the screen goes dark. The discussions are rooted in a genuine love for the medium, often veering into the wonderfully nerdy details that true enthusiasts appreciate. You'll hear about the triumphs and challenges of creative work, the influences from games and genre fiction hinted at by the title, and the personal journeys that shape the stories we see on screen. Tune into this podcast for honest, meandering talks that feel like talking shop with friends-the perfect companion while you're sketching, commuting, or yes, even enjoying a bowl of ramen. It’s a dedicated space for the visual storytelling community, celebrating the process as much as the final product.
