Story-based animated film titles

Today, the term animation is used broadly and encompasses a vast array of styles and technologies that are used to create the illusion of motion. Here, we focus on some really good examples of the use of animated characters in film title design. Not only do these title sequences list the main credits, they have animated characters that introduce us to the story of the film. None of these films are animated.
