How to use animation in a sentence?

  1. Creator Mike Spalla:

    Well Jingle Cats was such a big hit when it first came out in 1993. It was an album of real cats singing 20 Christmas songs and it was nine cats, this year ... it's going to be a Jingle Cats movie completely done in 'claymation' and it's turning out pretty funny ... the music is really an animation and so with animated characters it works very well.

  2. Pete Docter:

    I think the secret source to animation, like anything, is truth, so even though we are taking people to these far out places and showing them characters that you'd never believe are alive -- cars, bugs, Monsters Inc. -- we are seeing something of ourselves on screen.

  3. Richard Burton:

    False friendship, like the ivy, decays and ruins the walls it embraces; but true friendship gives new life and animation to the object it supports.

    We are also focused on leveraging Fox's vast library of great titles to further enrich the content mix on our... platforms -- for example, reimagining' Home Alone,'' Night at the Museum,'' Cheaper by the Dozen' and' Diary of a Wimpy Kid' for a new generation on Disney Animation +.

  5. Tao Jie:

    A lot of the Chinese comic and animation are developed from online novels that I have already read. I like them because I'm already a fan of the stories.
