Amano had many major accomplishments, mainly from working in Character Design. He worked on every one of the Final Fantasy games up until today. Another major accomplishment, in my mind, was that he was technically the creator (co-wrote) the animated movie Angel's Egg. The movie was based off of his style of art, as well as him co-writing it. The movie Angel's Egg is by far one of my favorite visually pleasing
He discovered new ways to animate films and make the quality better (2). The use of color in Disney’s movies also set a new precedent in technology. Many critics still consider his work a masterpiece (12). In today’s world, one of the most important cultural aspects to most countries is the accessibility to tv and movies (6). If people want to learn something, they can take to the television, and voila. Disney played a huge part in the task of broadening communication through his important strides in technology. Without tv, knowing what is going on in the world would be a lot harder, and without Disney’s important discoveries in animation, recreational tv would be less

Tim Burton is a weird, unique, director, producer, and screenwriter. He was born in Burbank, California, on August 25, 1958. He worked as a Disney animator for less than a year before striking out on his own. He is known for putting fantasy and horror together in his films. Burton has a distinct style when it comes to film directing. His certain techniques, his setting, and how he makes his characters is a lot different than other film directors. Tim Burton chooses a system and style of cinematic techniques - like music, sound, and camera movement - to keep the audience entertained. It is very easy to compare his techniques and style in the movies Edward Scissorhands, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and Alice in Wonderland.
