  2. Animation is protesting against rigid forms. Animation, which only conveys natural movements cannot be creative animation. Animation is a technical process the result of which has to be creative. Animation means breathing spirit and life into a drawing, not by simply copying reality but by giving it a design. Life is warmth. Warmth is movement. Movement is life. Animation can be lukewarm or boiling. Cold animation isn't animation; it is like a stillborn child. Making animated cartoons means rubbing tree-trunks against each other until there is a spark perhaps or just a little bit of smoke. Take a kilogram of ideas (if possible not too confused), fifty kilograms of talent, and a few thousand drawings. Stir it well and then with a bit of luck you won't get the right answer to your question."  Borivoj Dovnikovic, Ante Zaninovic, Zlatko Grgic, Vladimir Jutrisa, Aleksandar Marks, Dusan Vukotic and Nedeljko Dragic
