a STUNNING technical achievement!!

This severely underappreciated show does NOT get the appreciation it deserves, that is why I'm calling for JUSTICE for the Donkey Kong TV show.

Donkey Kong might be the first television show to use motion capture animation for fully-rigged characters. It may also be the first instance of a live-action cast interacting with a motion-capture 3D cast. It has a mind-blowing lip-sync system for its time, and its animation style is unique for its time (and even in children's animation today).

Watch a professional animator break down the technology, history, and context behind Donkey Kong Country and explain with a frame-by-frame analysis what makes Donkey Kong Country an impressive technical achievement of its time.

JUSTICE FOR DONKEY KONG!!!!
