In a discussion on AI-assisted 2D animation, animator aramintak explains she only uses boards: imposing full 3D references messes with the style too much and fights the natural flow of 2D animation.
Andrew Carr responds that it doesn't have to be this way — fine-tuning is still mostly out of reach for most creators, but custom-built models per production would prevent the models from fighting the style.
The exchange highlights a core pain point of AI video generation for animation: general-purpose models struggle to respect a creator's individual style.
