Hi all. I was wondering if there was a name for this style of "animation". This is the new trailer for Magic: The Gathering called "Theros Trailer":

More importantly, I was wondering how the heck did they manipulate those illustrations (which were created by several artists)?? Someone mentioned that the animation team did NOT utilize layers--from the original artwork--to achieve these effects. If that's true, I figure a lot of re-painting had to be done for this...
Do you think they used After Effects? I don't own AE, though I've always been curious to try it out.. but that's my best guess, I have no idea what software they could have used... :/ It makes me pretty bummed because it's beautiful. ;-; I would love to try that out someday.
