Animated Quotes : pic 000208849
Graphics experts led by computer scientists at Harvard have created an add-on software tool that translates video game characters - or any other three-dimensional animations - into fully articulated action figures, with the help of a 3D printer.
Animated Quotes : pic 001365054
We animate what we can see, and we see only what we animate.
Animated Quotes : pic 001668832
What we were in on, really, was the invention of animation.
Animated Quotes : pic 000295142
In my opinion, animation is best when it communicates without words, because it is the perfect medium through which to make shortcuts to meaning. When actors are not talking, just acting out, it looks kind of weird. But in animation, mime is constant, and you accept it.
Animated Quotes : pic 000109755
Modern animated movies are the products not of anyone's individual vision, but rather a scattered accumulation of compromises made out of fear by members of large committees.
Animated Quotes : pic 001878632
I've loved all forms of animation.
Animated Quotes : pic 001153545
The animated bug has bitten pop culture. It makes me feel happy and free. When you don't act seriously, you can make up your own rules.
Animated Quotes : pic 001256179
When you are in a live-action movie, you have so many more options to express yourself. You can use your body and your gestures and facial expressions. When you are doing an animated movie, you really only have your voice.
Animated Quotes : pic 000038528
Horse racing is animated roulette.
Animated Quotes : pic 001306888
For me, animation is the caricature of life. It's something that we create, from the ground up.
Animated Quotes : pic 000326768
What seems real to the mind can be as important as any material fact. We live by the spirit and the imagination as well as by our senses. Cartoon animation can give fantasy the same reality as those things we can touch and see and hear.
Animated Quotes : pic 001314260
Did I not tell you that I, too, in my way was an artist? I realised in myself the same desire as animated him. But whereas his medium was paint, mine has been life.
Animated Quotes : pic 000697743
I grew up watching classic animation, and I have always felt that the roots of animation is in fantasy and taking it in places that you can't go, any other way.
Animated Quotes : pic 000257586
The crucial job of artists is to find a way to release materials into the animated middle ground between subjects, and so to initiate the difficult but joyful process of human connection.
Animated Quotes : pic 001368669
People, they think that animation is a style. Animation is just a technique. It's like, people, they think that comics is a style, like comics is a superhero story. Comic is just a narration, and is a medium, you can say any kind of story in comics and you can say of any kind of story in animation.
Animated Quotes : pic 001302525
There's nothing harder to do in animation than nothing. Movement is our medium.
Animated Quotes : pic 000373190
With an animated show you can make a banana purple. You can put three hats on a cowboy. That would require several days of stitching, in live-action, that you wouldn't be able to afford. I mean, you can just do tons and tons and tons.
Animated Quotes : pic 001194586
Animation means to invoke life, not to imitate it.
Animated Quotes : pic 001043464
I have decided that I want animation to be taken seriously; that is the goal of my life. I believe that animation is a very important medium to tell stories, not just for kids but for adults.
Animated Quotes : pic 000531131
When you take something that's inert, and through motion, give it life, make it appear to be alive, living, breathing thinking and having emotions, that's animation. But when you take something that's live-action, and move a part of it, that's a special effect.
Animated Quotes : pic 001212286
I keep wondering why the Academy decided that they needed a separate category for animated films just at a moment when there are a lot of people who couldn't tell you whether a film is animated or not. - Roy E. Disney
Animated Quotes : pic 000587252
I like animation: you can go to work in your pyjamas.
Animated Quotes : pic 001574479
You're not supposed to animate drawings. You're supposed to animate feelings.
Animated Quotes : pic 001819626
film is and has always been just a subset of animation - in contrast to how critics presented the relation - if animation is understood to be the inputting of life, or the inputting of the illusion of life, into that which is flat or inert or a model or an image.
Animated Quotes : pic 001202988
I've always tried to make the strip animated, even when the characters aren't moving, with expressions or perspectives or some sort of exaggeration. There's great potential for that which has yet to be fully mined.
Animated Quotes : pic 001401647
Nothing's occurring in animation - you manufacture everything.
Animated Quotes : pic 001496890
Animation is manipulating the difference.
Animated Quotes : pic 000713246
For this game, we shot it just like it as if it was a film so there wasn't that much different from doing a film other than some technical things for the costume that had to be done so they could transfer the footage later and make it look animated.
Animated Quotes : pic 001162912
This is a Disney animated feature; it's eternal, it's history. What's there to think about'
Animated Quotes : pic 000516576
Animation is the only thing I ever wanted to do in my whole life. I have no desire for live-action or anything else.
Animated Quotes : pic 001023060
The whole point of animation to me is to tell a story, make a joke, express an idea. The technique itself doesn't really matter. Whatever works is the thing to use.
Animated Quotes : pic 000601260
In the world of animation, you can be anything you wanna be. If you're a fat woman, you can play a skinny princess. If you're short wimpy guy, you can play a tall gladiator. If you're a white man, you can play an Arabian prince. And if you're a black man, you can play a donkey or a zebra.
Animated Quotes : pic 000217346
Any type of animation, it could be really super crude or very sophisticated, it doesn't mean anything if we don't make this point in this shot, this one here and this one here. There's the saying, 'One shot, one thought.' It's pretty much a true way to go.
Animated Quotes : pic 000475953
People who get into animation tend to be kids. We don't have to grow up. But also, animators are great observers, and there's this childlike wonder and interest in the world, the observation of little things that happen in life.
Animated Quotes : pic 001154945
The thing that I enjoy about animation is the fact that it is unbridled, and there are no boundaries; when you are in the room, you don't have to focus on your clothing, make-up, hair, your choreography or your blocking; you really do have total freedom.
Animated Quotes : pic 001659884
In animation, there's this exhilarating moment of discovery when you see the film and you say, Oh THAT'S what I was doing.
Animated Quotes : pic 000348535
I was always into cartoons and animation.
Animated Quotes : pic 001213210
Polar Express is not an attempt to do animation. It is a technology-based film.
Animated Quotes : pic 000330156
What I love most about animation is, it's a team sport, and everything we do is about pure imagination.
Animated Quotes : pic 001865852
I'm not honestly a real student of animation. I never was into it all that much. I don't really watch any animated shows.
Animated Quotes : pic 000871094
I played this character twice in live action, and now I've become an animated character. It was actually fun to see myself drawn - I've never been a drawn character before.
Animated Quotes : pic 000164850
Sure, they were simple desk lamps with only a minimal amount of movement, but you could immediately tell that Luxo Jr. was a baby, and that the big one was his mother. In that short little film, computer animation went from a novelty to a serious tool for filmmaking.
Animated Quotes : pic 000631599
When you do a voice in an animated film, you don't see the finished product at all. You're not animating. You're not doing the voice on the finished product. You're doing the voice long before.
Animated Quotes : pic 001865428
The nice thing about animation is that you can realise your inventions without understanding all the hard theory.
Animated Quotes : pic 001325731
Every animator is really an actor performing in slow motion, living the character a drawing at a time.
Animated Quotes : pic 001799620
In terms of writing characters or stories, at least initially, there's no difference between live-action and animation. A good story is a good story, whatever the medium.
Animated Quotes : pic 001650923
To direct a genuinely animated film, you're really having meetings and discussing what you want with animators who then go off and produce one shot at a time that you look at and comment on.
Animated Quotes : pic 001546349
You basically go in animation and it's all in the imagination. There aren't even pictures to look at. You usually go in there and work with whoever the director is to create this voice and this character.
Animated Quotes : pic 000013413
In a comic strip, you can suggest motion and time, but it's very crude compared to what an animator can do. I have a real awe for good animation.
Animated Quotes : pic 001284104
The animators are absolutely extraordinary. It's mind-boggling.
Animated Quotes : pic 000326766
Born of necessity, the little fellow literally freed us of immediate worry. He provided the means for expanding our organization to its present dimensions and for extending the medium cartoon animation towards new entertainment levels. He spelled production liberation for us.
Animated Quotes : pic 000326760
Look what Disney's done to their animation department. There wasn't an animator in charge of their animation unit!
Animated Quotes : pic 001689651
I'm a fan of animation and so, the more stuff that doesn't look like the other stuff that's out there, I'm in favor.
Animated Quotes : pic 001594185
One of the great things about doing animated movies is that you don't have to dress up or put on make-up.
Animated Quotes : pic 000344053
For me, animated film is about magic. This is how magic becomes part of daily life, invading daily life.... Magic enters into a quite ordinary contact with mundane things ... (making) reality seem doubtful.
Animated Quotes : pic 000491633
Hand-drawn animation is something that I feel really strongly about. A Pixar movie may be really great, but it looks like it was drawn by a machine.
Animated Quotes : pic 000323154
Computers don't create computer animation any more than a pencil creates pencil animation. What creates computer animation is the artist.
Animated Quotes : pic 001084099
My livelihood depends on the art of animators.
Animated Quotes : pic 001872760
Animation is a technique, not a genre.
Animated Quotes : pic 000142898
This landscape is animate: it moves, transposes, builds, proceeds, shifts, always going on, never coming back, and one can only retain it in vignettes, impressions caught in a flash, flipped through in succession, leaving a richness of images imprinted on a sunburned retina.
Animated Quotes : pic 000631602
Animating is a very slow, pain-staking process and the animators become the actors at that point.
Animated Quotes : pic 000011104
I prefer that animation reach into places where live action doesn't go, and it seems like all of animation nowadays is trying to go where live action is.
Animated Quotes : pic 001060440
I had always loved cartoons, especially 'Bugs Bunny,' and I found I enjoyed making animated films. Even a 30-second commercial involved drawing and painting, storytelling, not to mention actors, music, and sound effects.
Animated Quotes : pic 001017602
Animated films are so precisely engineered - right down to forming lines of dialogue with words pulled from several different takes - how do you translate that spontaneity from the live-action to the digital realm?
Animated Quotes : pic 000699373
I think hand-drawn animation can be something really special. If the character design is quite simple it has the ability to allow people to easily relate to the characters in a special manner.
Animated Quotes : pic 001457486
Sheer animated fantasy is still my first and deepest production impulse.
Animated Quotes : pic 001706706
I love animation, I really do, but I don't do it for the children.
Animated Quotes : pic 001530048
The whole thing that drew me to doing an animated film is that you're freed from the physical limitations of your physical body. All of a sudden, you get to be something that has nothing to do with the fact that I'm a 6'4, lumbering dude, and that is really exciting.
Animated Quotes : pic 001155106
You can be moved by an animated film and not by a live action film. There could be great inspiration in and humanity in that animated story.
Animated Quotes : pic 000013007
Animation is a great way to work. No early morning call times, no make-up chair. In live action, you're always fighting the clock; the sun is always going down too soon.
Animated Quotes : pic 001808256
A gem of a short film has a sense of pure joy in animation that is different from anything you see in a feature film.
Animated Quotes : pic 001241149
I'm a true fan of animation, and it's my livelihood. Live-action is secondary to me.
Animated Quotes : pic 001646273
Animation had been done before, but stories were never told.
Animated Quotes : pic 000592468
After days and nights of incredible labour and fatigue, I succeeded in discovering the cause of generation and life; nay, more, I became myself capable of bestowing animation upon lifeless matter. The
Animated Quotes : pic 000286359
The thing about animation is that it's a constantly changing process. They talk in terms of sequences - so there's like thirty different sequences in a movie and at anytime those were shifting or being taken out or being replaced.
Animated Quotes : pic 001675836
I don't dislike the process of animation ... I find it daunting, but only as much as I find everything daunting.
Animated Quotes : pic 000332039
We are all God's animated cartoons.
Animated Quotes : pic 000397963
The problem is, when you're making an animated movie, the studio has an illusion in their minds - and it's really not true - that because it's a drawing, it can be changed at any time.
Animated Quotes : pic 000416924
It's not quite the same as other kinds of performing, but I love animation. It is just a different kind of experience. The difference is that making a live action movie you are using your whole body.
Animated Quotes : pic 000859124
People are very harsh critics of animated humans.
Animated Quotes : pic 000268951
At that time, the people that were in the animated film business were mostly guys who were unsuccessful newspaper cartoonists. In other words, their ability to draw living things was practically nil.
Animated Quotes : pic 000940195
I began my career creating art for an animated feature film, and it has been a life-long dream to tell some of the story of my own life - the story behind my art - through the medium of motion pictures.
Animated Quotes : pic 001506689
I've been drawing my whole life. My mom says my sister and I were drawing by age 1. Animation seems a real, natural extension of drawing as a way of telling a story visually.
Animated Quotes : pic 000962134
Seeing your work in something animated, you realize how little you have to do with all of it. It's always a surprise, and its always exciting to see. You never know what is going to happen when you're in that room by yourself.
Animated Quotes : pic 000307753
I do feel like animated films really combine a lot of different of art forms: film-making and writing and drawing and painting - to a certain extent, even sculpting. It's a wonderful medium to work with as a craftsman because it's such so rich and so varied and so expressive.
Animated Quotes : pic 000469406
I really like the animated film process. It's kind of like doing a play, because you can experiment with it, rewrite it, screen it, go back, then work on it a little bit more. If the joke doesn't work, you can fix it. It's different from a live action movie.
Animated Quotes : pic 000151056
If you are going to describe the history of animation, you'd look at the early Disney work, then 'Bugs Bunny,' 'Road Runner' and other Warner Brothers theatrical productions. But when you got to 'Rocky and Bullwinkle,' you'd see they were unique: They assumed you had a brain in your head.
Animated Quotes : pic 001317632
An animatic is a process where every voice and every sound effect is added to rough animated drawings and it lasts exactly as long as the final movie. So you actually get to go into a screening room with the rest of the cast and you get to see it all at the same time.
Animated Quotes : pic 000326773
I don't know if I really watched any Disney animation as a kid.
Animated Quotes : pic 000832091
Where as in animation you have to kind of do a series of drawings in between to complete the movement.
Animated Quotes : pic 001485539
Most of the animated films I watched, the emotions are all prepackaged like canned music, the hand actions, the sighs.
Animated Quotes : pic 000253081
I could see how people get addicted to animation, and I understand why it's so great for comedy. You can do whatever you want and it just happens.
Animated Quotes : pic 000298407
There's something known as the Uncanny Valley where things look a little too real and you're not quite sure what you're looking at. It becomes weird like it did in 'The Polar Express,' where the eyes seem so realistic, and yet you know it's animated.
Animated Quotes : pic 000600387
I'd love to be animated. I've always wanted to jump off of a bridge and not be hurt, like Bugs Bunny.
Animated Quotes : pic 000399655
A live action movie is work, and an animated movie is you showing up in your pajamas once every three months, or in my case, just a splash of baby powder. It's not any kind of heavy lifting.
Animated Quotes : pic 001498612
I was an animator for a while early on, but a 2D animator.
Animated Quotes : pic 001317181
All new tools are useful to animators, but great animation comes down to great animators.
Animated Quotes : pic 000999766
To describe the animate life of particular things is simply the most precise and parsimonious way to articulate the things as we spontaneously experience them, prior to all our conceptualizations and definitions.
Animated Quotes : pic 000314789
I'm a bit of a weird creature ... I'm self taught and went to a regular film school, not art school, and I think it's unusual for somebody to approach animation from that angle. In a sense I've sometimes consclassered myself more of a filmmaker who just happens to animate.
