BANK cels are stock footage cels. That means cels
that are used repeatedly in each episode. For
example, Sailor Moon's attack sequences, her
transformation scenes, etc..... are all examples
of bank cels. In general, I think they're higher
quality cels and there's fewer of them since
they're only painted once and reused for the
whole season.
A PAN cel is typically an oversized cel. It can be
a cel that then camera pans over either
horizontally or vertically for an extra long shot,
hence the name, pan cel.
These are just my own interpretations of those two
terms. I'm sure others more knowledgeable than me
could add to it. |
