The Alvin Movie

The Alvin Movie is a 2018 traditionally-animated musical film written by Ross Bagdasarian, Jr., Doug Langdale, Sherri Stoner, Deanna Oliver, Jon Vitti, John Swartzwelder and directed by Rich Arons. The film was produced at Paramount Feature Animation and Amblin Entertainment. The film is distributed by Paramount Pictures. The film was based off the 1961 series, The Alvin Show, produced originally by the now-defunct Herbert Klynn's Format Films.

Animation
Rich Arons was the main animation director and timing supervisor for the movie. He hired away many former Disney animators to work on the movie. The result was full traditional 2-D high-quality hand-drawn Disney animation. It really lacked the usual limited animation style used in the original Alvin Show, because of its lavish budget.
