It's spelled cel, not cell. Of course, it's short for celluloid.

Do they film the cels with a camera?

dislike for the dumbest expertvillage I've seen... learned nothing from this

Several inaccuracies in regard to the cels. One of which being that they were originally drawn on GLASS, not paper. NO DEMONSTRATION OR INSTRUCTION IS PROVIDED IN THIS VIDEO, in the event that that is what you're looking for.

i'm working on a cell-animation cartoon now. it's so hard to get each slide looking exactly like each other - tracing paper is too thin, regular paper is too thick. It's hard to find a middle. Hair strands move from slide to slide and the thickness of the eyes changes...it's kind of frustrating
