Animation Requires A Great Deal Of Concentration,

When You Put A Big Budget Into A Film, It Doesn't Necessarily Mean It Will Be A Better Picture, But It Does Help In Creating New Images On The Screen.

One Film Critic Back In The Early Days Said "it's A Pity Mr. Harryhausen Didn't Animated The Actors, Too."

If You Make Things Too Real, Sometimes You Bring It Down To The Mundane.

The Whole Point Of Making A Film Is To Tell A Story.

Many People Are Under The Delusion That I'm Just A Special-effects Man, But I've Worn Many Different Hats In My Day. On Every Film I've Been Involved In, I Worked With The Writer And Producer. We Really Formulated Those Scripts. We Tried To Make Films That Were Logical But Still Had The Fantasy Feel Of It. I Enjoy Aardman Animation's Films With Wallace And Gromit, But They're Obvious Puppet Films, Whereas We Tried To Disguise It And Make Our Effects Characters In The Films Rather Than Obvious Puppets.
