I'm long animated content over the next 2-5 years.

AI will bring the manufacturing cost down 100x, opening the door to more/better writers & world builders.

Pixar / Arcane / etc have raised the quality bar on animated content, changing consumer behavior.

I'd expect the best shows/movies in 5 years to be animated.

Interactive video (to the extent that the genre exists) is also much easier and cheaper with animated content.

Where do you draw the line between interactive video (which Netflix has experimented with) and gaming?

Or is there even a line?

Best examples of interactive video?

Not sure I can draw the line. Maybe relates to the role of the [viewer / player]?

I think it has the most potential with kids programming. A lot of those shows are already “interactive” without the tech (Dora, Blues Clues)
