Animation is the only thing I ever wanted to do in my whole life. I have no desire for live-action or anything else.
John LasseterEvery animator is really an actor performing in slow motion, living the character a drawing at a time.
John LasseterIt [moviemaking] is about entertaining audiences with great characters and great stories, you want to make people laugh, you want to make people cry, you want to have great music that is memorable. You want a movie that, as soon as it's over, you want to watch it again, just like that. That's what it is, whether it's live-action, animation, hand drawn, computer, special effects, puppet animation, it doesn't matter. That's the goal of a filmmaker.
