This group develops and supports the following:

Digital Paint - A digital painting package designed specifically for the construction and editing of backgrounds, overlays, underlays, etc. It has been used for nearly half of the paintings in "Atlantis", will be used for the entire production of "Treasure Planet", and is the artistic front-end to DeepCanvas.

CAPS - The Academy-Award winning "Computerized Animation Production System", CAPS is the fully digital pipeline used to create all of our traditionally-animated films here at Disney. It encompasses scanning, exposure-sheet creation and evolution, compositing, color modelling, inking and painting, registration, and film-printing in a manner unprecedented and unmatched in the film industry.

Scanning Software - Integrated with CAPS, the scanning software drives state-of-the-art scanning stands to digitize our hand-drawn and hand-painted artwork.

Filming Software - Integrated with CAPS, the filming software allows us to print to film any and all images generated throughout our digital pipeline.

SceneDesigner - SceneDesigner, which is integrated with CAPS, is a 3d visualization tool that utilizes a virtual multi-plane camera to create the illusion of depth in our animated features. It provides production with the ability to place 2-dimensional drawings in a full 3-d space and animate these billboards or the 3d camera to accomplish dynamic and complex environments.

Film/Print Scan - Change to Film Scanning: This software drives the process for scanning in live-action plates for TSL.

Color Management - Walt Disney Feature Animation is creating a state-of-the-art pipeline for managing the accurate representation and display of color through all mediums of the filming production process, from digitizing to film-printing and digital theater projection.

CTI - The "Configuration Tool Interface", CTI is a standard environment used by our software crews in managing the development and maintenance of all of our software products.
