Stuff to Consider

- Animators should always try and engage with other art forms, particularly those that privilege movement - for example, dance; and those that tell storers by other means - for example, opera, through music.

- Try not to move everything in every frame - pauses are beneficial and silences can be dramatically effective.

- Not all animation should be 'realistic', but it should be credible. Establish the 'illogical logic' of the world you create and give it credibility.

- Try to make sure that all the elements of your animated world are used to tell your story - for example, colour, design, lighting etc.
