"Hi, this is Cable for Expert Village. In this clip I'm going to show you some principles on scanning for digitally inking and painting drawn animation frames. Okay, so depending on your storage space on your computer or your hard drive, you may need to lower the resolution settings on your scanner or you may have the luxury of scanning at a high resolution. For example, take a look at a comparison of scanning at a low resolution versus scanning at a high resolution. And look at the image on the left compared to the image on the right. And you can see just... in the event that you need to resize or zoom in on your animation after it's inked, you can see that the line quality varies greatly and the image on the right is degraded while the image on the left, which was scanned at a much higher resolution, is much more intact and may present a little better-looking artwork in the end."
