Progression Reel

Production on an episode or film goes through many stages. Some DVDs contain a Progression Reel, which offers a comparison on the many stages of the film's production process.

Most of them simply show the differences from the storyboard to the final show. However, some of them show the different types of animation that's used in the process (e.g. Layout and animation).

This feature was kept in most of the DVDs Big Idea released up until Duke and the Great Pie War.
