Animators can only draw from their own experiences of pain and shock and emotions.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Animators do amazing working translating and interpolating the characters [in the Planet of the apes], the facial performances. What we're creating on set - if you don't get it on the day, in the moment, on set, in front of the camera, with the director and the actors. The emotional content of the scene and the acting choices.
Andy Serkis
Image
Animators have to live life 24 times as long as we do - every 24 frames of a second.
Darren Aronofsky
Image
You draw the character from all angles - side, profile, back, etc. so the animator has this character in all the ways it looks like.
Marjane Satrapi
Image
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.
Bill Watterson
Image
The great thing about the animation process is that is goes from, I write the lines, it goes to the actors, the actors bring a whole world to that, they bring the characters to life, then it goes to the animators, then it goes to the editor who cuts it together, and then you screen it and it goes back through the system again.
Michael Arndt

In timing a film, we used to assume that sneaks move slowly. This was great for animators-thirty-six to forty-eight drawings for a single step-but it was sheer hell for the pace of the picture. So the rapid tiptoe was invented.
Chuck Jones
Image
The quality and success of Disney was actually bad for us animators because everyone on the planet thought that animation was only for kids and only in a certain domain. The big film festivals never thought much about animated films.
Michel Ocelot
Image
I was an animator for a while early on, but a 2D animator.
Dan Scanlon
Image
Look what Disney's done to their animation department. There wasn't an animator in charge of their animation unit!
Ralph Bakshi
Image
When I was four years old some friends of my family took me to see 'Fantasia' and I was totally blown away. From that minute on I wanted to be an animator.
David Bolinsky
Image
Literally overnight, I became an animator... and one that was well-known.
Terry Gilliam
Image
All new tools are useful to animators, but great animation comes down to great animators.
Dean DeBlois
Image
I think a good study of music would be indispensable to the animators - a realization on their part of how primitive music is, how natural it is for people to want to go to music - a study of rhythm, the dance - the various rhythms enter into our lives every day.
Walt Disney
Image
I decided I wanted to be a painter, and then that moved into wanting to be an animator. By adolescence, I just wanted it to be something that was important...something that would make a difference in people's lives or leave an imprint in history.
Evangeline Lilly
Image
I've been very lucky. I've had three separate careers: freelance illustrator, then set designer, puppetteer and animator, and now fine artist. I just bluffed my way into every one of 'em!
Wayne White

I've been very lucky to work with many amazing animators and directors who can interpret and extend the music I make. When it's done well, it can create extra meaning and new context for the song.
Gotye

The thing with animation is that you record the actors like a radio show and then the animators become actors in their own way because it's their job to take this puppets and make them seem alive. They bring their own personalities to the way they move these puppets.
Wes Anderson
Image
To have a film where there's an evil figure and a good person fights against the evil figure and everything becomes a happy ending, that's one way to make a film. But then that means you have to draw, as an animator, the evil figure. And it's not very pleasant to draw evil figures.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
There's always kids who become stop motion animators. I get stuff all the time. They put it on YouTube. It's exciting to see.
Henry Selick
Image
I have never played a superhero in real life and I would imagine it is very different Voiceover is super easy. You just come in and do a bunch of versions of it and then the animators and directors on that side of the movie put your performance together.
Jeremy Sisto
Image
There's always one sequence in every animated film that's the bane of every animator's existence.
Andrew Stanton
Image
When I was at Pixar, I was in my hole. I was an animator, I had my shots and I was like, Yeah, I've gotta make this perfect! It's a very selfish thing.
John Kahrs
Image
In terms of animation, animators are actors as well. They are fantastic actors. They have to draw from how they feel emotionally about the beat of a scene that they're working on. They work collaboratively.
