Disciple?
The DVD special features have director's commentary, background on how the animation was created (shooting on cheap camcorders and then adding the illustration on computer - all manual tracing, nothing automated), commentary by all illustrators (eg. on the red-haired philosopher with the undulated hair), commentary on problems encountered during shooting (glass reflections in the car scene), etc etc.
I first thought they used a simple auto-trace function, but each scene was carefully crafted and imprintined with the artists' unique style. I was very impressed.
