Animation directors and supervising
animators are sometimes used interchangeably, and
in essence, they refer to the same thing. As they
are usually called supervising animators in the
American tradition, animation directors who work in
the United States will henceforth be referred to by
that term. However, one key difference does exist:
under the classical Disney model of American
animation, supervising animators directly oversee
the animation of a single character.
However, the animator is divided into the
character animator who mainly draws living things,
such as characters and the machine animator who
mainly draws inanimate objects, such as a robot, a
car, and an airplane in Japan these days.
Mechanical animation directors are a group
largely unique to anime. They oversee the animation
of all objects which move under their own power,
such as automobiles, tanks, and giant robots.
Occasionally, they also animate large, non-human
characters, such as monsters, dragons, and living
machines. Even more frequently than in character
animation, there is a high level of cross-over
between mechanical designers and animation
directors, and far more often, the mechanical
animation directors will be required to animate
effects, such as explosions or shell casings being
ejected from weapons.
