2D animation - South Park

My biggest dream ever is to work for Trey Parker and Matt Stone on South Park. It's my favourite animation style in the entire world, so I decided to check it out. I knew they began by using construction paper, in a cut-out animation style, and had worked it out for myself that when the TV series began, they would be animating using computers...but was shocked to discover that they actually use 3D software, in order to keep the handmade look about the characters, however, it's still animated in a 2D, jerky style.
Here is a link explaining how South Park was developed, and is made today.
