Since it was an animated movie, there were many creative uses of different camera shots and angles. The movie used most of these different angles and shots lots of times to develop many feeling towards characters and settings.

One flaw I noticed was a lack of detail as to how the video were made. https://williamarbe loms.blogspot.com/ William Arbello
