Animator's Quote # 2


In order to give life to movement, one cannot just move an object without reason.
Every movement in an animated scene must have a reason for being. That is the
basis for character animation. John Lasseter

Animators' Quote # 1


I like to see process. In animation, to see on paper something change a little bit,
flicker and bubble, that's what makes the drawing come to life- that is the magic.
