Self Introduction - What I love about animation I have friends who asked me why do I prefer animation to live-action films when green screens exist. To me, animation is something really different. Anything is possible in animation, and they sometimes don't even have to make sense. As an audience, I enjoy watching the shows, my emotions are driven by the story, the music and the "actors".
