Based on the title, I thought it meant they were pulling a “wikiHow” and rotoscoping/reanimating existing movies and TV shows. No, they’re contract animators working for HBO Max and Amazon.
When Roy discovered the exposed cloud server, it was being updated on a daily basis. Martyn Williams, a senior fellow on the 38 North Project who helped analyze the contents of the server, says the server likely allowed work to be sent to and from North Korean animators. The server itself is still live, but it mysteriously stopped being used at the end of February. While there is a login page, its contents can be accessed without a username and password. “I found the login page after I found all the exposed files,” Roy says.
I wonder if anyone can find the cloud server, and if so, archive the contents. It’s always fascinating seeing behind-the-scenes details about shows, but official behind-the-scenes footage always lacks depth. It’d be cool to archive that stuff.

The fact that it’s not rotoscoped North Korean remakes proves we’re not in the Good Place.
