Dreamworks company has always inspired me, and is the reason why I try to animate today because most of my favourite movies and memories come from watching animations made by them, different from the other popular animating company Disney, Dreamworks try to make their characters realistic in most cases except of course fantasy films such as Shrek, but even then they focus on the characteristic and personalties being as relatable or just likeable as possible.

Spirit Stallion of The Cimarron is one of my favourite childhood movies and I love it as it tells the story of love and determination in the eyes of a horse. The art is beautiful and the animation is very smooth and stunning in this film. The story line captivates me as well as the amazingly well drawn out animals and humans in this film.

There are other examples where Dreamworks as shown how talented they are such as Rise of The Guardians and Shrek. Just another two films that were very successful and loves by the public, due to their amazing stories and amazingly done animations and art style.

Most of Dreamworks characters focus on realistic features such as eyes, nose, mouth. And that is why when they are doing a character that is suppose to look odd and out the ordinary it is so well done because they can do things like have bigger eyes, a larger nose or a creepy mouth and it will stand out drastically and help give a more over exaggerated look to them. Increasing the comedic or creepy appearance they're trying to give off.

I hope to try focus my animations to look like Dreamworks one day.
