An animation cel is a piece of acetate, usually 10 1/2 x 12 1/2". Each cel has been hand inked, copying the line of the animation drawing, by an "inker". Then it has been hand painted by an "opaquer" with colors selected especially for each scene in the film. When combined with the hand painted background, it becomes one frame of the film. Each cel is numbered by scene, and numbered by its place in the scene. It also has the letter of the seqence from which it comes. A sequence is made up of scenes. Each animation cel has its own individual letter and numbers. There are no duplicates.
