label: Description
content: A celluloid (or cel) is a transparent sheet used in the process of hand-drawn animation. Characters were drawn on cels and superimposed on a fixed background image to reduce the number of reproductions necessary to produce an animation. <i>The Little Mermaid</i> was the last Disney feature film to use this hand-painted method of animation. Starting with the 1990 feature film <i>The Rescuers Down Under</i>, Walt Disney Animation Studios began using a digital method of animation known as the Disney Computer Animation Production System (CAPS).
