From Plymptoons.
A special cameo from Bill’s wife – Sandrine Plympton, who explains the coloring process which was all done by hand at the time.
Sandrine, an incredibly skilled and accomplished Illustrator in her own right, used to work with Bill at his studio where she would lend her keen eye for color theory to his projects, aside from The Simpsons, she has credits on Revengeance, Footprints, and other films in the Plymptoons library. Their main tool at the time was Prismacolor Pencils, the Colorists would lay on the base color first and Bill would come in with the shading. The mouths were intentionally left for Bill to complete himself so that he could also animate the lip-sync.
