i know the answer to this but why do people only portray Gwen as the bitter teen girl and Miles as an always happy ray of sunshine when they had really good chemistry bc of how dry both their humor was
Technically not in a year development for movies takes more like 5 years. Development for Into the spider-verse started around 2014. While The Emoji Movie was in development around the same time. They were technically developed together but what a lot of people tend to lack remembering is that they are different teams.
The movies may belong to the studio but there are tons of people working there. All that Sony from the top really does is approve which projects they are going to fund.
We’re judging a whole animation and distribution center on something not everyone works on. It’s not improvement it’s just two entirely different teams working on different stories.
I think the lack of understanding how the industry actually works hurts a lot of animators in the end because then a project isn’t associated with a team, but a company. And I think it should be something that’s highlighted when talking about animation.
Not to mention, most of the time, these studios are commissioned to do their films by outside studios, and by various people who pitch the original ideas. The Spider-Verse film was created by a team at Sony under the patronage of Marvel, for instance.
Please don’t make the mistake of assuming a studio is one singular entity that makes a single kind of thing – studios employ a LOT of people, and in order to afford to pay these people and secure a profit, they must also be working on several concurrent projects, often of vastly different styles.
