Artistry, inspiration, imagination...these are amongst the words that often come
to mind when describing the art of animation. But what about humanity? One
might argue that it's the humanity of the characters that allow us to connect
with them and see more than ink on screen, where a troll becomes more than a
toy. In our feature on 50 years of Scooby-Doo, many of those who worked on the
project cited the deep bond between Scooby and Shaggy as one reason the show
withstands the test of time. And, in a completely different realm, supervisors
in animation talk about the importance of "Hiring Humanely," ensuring that
working environments are both industrious and compassionate.
