Multiple render engines were used to achieve the look of the show's lighting, requiring an incredible number of rendered layers to achieve maximum versatility in compositing and speed of production. A hybrid approach was used at times where the visual was given a CG element and enhanced by 2D, and complex effects like smoke were purely CG.

Bardel's 3D team looked after CG and figured out how to assetize FX that was hand-drawn in Harmony, while the 2D FX department enhanced compositing by delicately perfecting toonlines, and adding shapes to the shadows on a face or body. The following rigging step required helping tool as well, and was also quite expensive. Because toon shading required special care during surfacing, the studio output specific masks to cheat the termination line in lighting. įour different technologies were used before Bardel was satisfied with the end product of the model's outlines, including a completely new 2D approach in Harmony. The production follows several steps, including design, storyboarding, model/surfacing, rigging, environment, animation, 2D/3D FX, lighting, and compositing. To avoid the typical "floatiness" of a computer animated production, the animators emulated Japanese animation by animating the show with 8-12 frames per second. This choice was made to allow more dynamic camera angles and lighting and to greater-detailed character modeling. The show's unique animation style is created using cell-shaded, three-dimensional computer animation a hybrid between CG and 2D. The Dragon Prince is produced by Wonderstorm in collaboration with Bardel Entertainment.
