This Sounds Kinda Incredible
One animator animated an entire feature film all by herself:
Nina Paley's Sita Sings the Blues ... tells two parallel stories: the ancient Hindu epic the Ramayana and the breakup of Paley's 21st-century marriage. It does so through four distinct styles of animation, a "greek chorus" of Indonesian shadow puppets and wildly imaginative musical interludes that use authentic 1920s blues recordings to link narratives 3,000 years apart.
