an interview :

Tool wise, the crew used TVPaint [a digital ink and paint program for compositing over Photoshop-painted images].

That sounds a bit weird. In the making of videos it looks like they're using TVPaint for animation, not for compositing.

Yes, that's how they worked : they animated with TVPAINT and painted using Photoshop.

I noticed that , too. It seems to me the editor of the interview inserted that comment in brackets [a digital ink and paint program for compositing over Photoshop-painted images] . As you point out, the making-of videos show the animators animating in TVPaint. As I understand it they animated in TVPaint , then the animation drawings were painted frame by frame with custom brushes in Photoshop.
