When I was little I once saw a programme about how they made cartoons. It was all about the painstakingly long hours they put into drawing each individual clip of the cartoon. Later on when I watched Neighbours I was amazed how realistic all the characters looked and thought that all the people on it were drawn. I thought all programmes didn't have real people and everything was drawn. I think it took me a few years until I learnt different.
