Scope note
Refers to drawings on sheets of clear acetate or nitrate, where the outline of the figures are applied to the front of the cel, and the color is applied to the back. The sheet is typically placed over a background image and photographed, along with a series of other animation cels that together depict phased movements of the figures.
