Your job is not to be the one with the answers. You should be the one that gets the answers. That's your job. You need to make friends and get to know your crew. These folks are your talent, your bag of tricks. And that's where you're going to find answers to the big problems

- Andrew Stanton

It's hard. Yet the pain you go through to get what you need for your film enriches you, and it enriches the film. - Brenda Chapman
Frank and Ollie always used to say that great character animation contains movement that is generated by the character's thought process. It can't be plain movement.

- John Lasseter

The beauty of clay is that it doesn't have to be too polished, or too smooth and sophisticated. You don't want it to be mechanical and lifeless.

- Nick Park

The good thing about animation is that tape is very cheap. Let the actor try things. This is where animation gets to play with spontaneity. You want to capture that line as it has never been said before. And, most likely, if you asked the actor to do it again, he or she just can't repeat that exact performance. But you got it.
