It is sometimes difficult to make people understand how much work it takes into getting something done. No matter how many times you explain or how hard you try to make your work clear, people do not always care to understand clearly. Particularly in the fields of creative work which require a lot of talent and skills. Many of us do not even have a minor idea of what it takes to create some of our favorites like animated movies.
Something just like this happened to Dan O'Brien, the lighting Artist. After Dan O'Brien felt that people had no idea of the work he did, the lighting Artist gave some brilliant examples of how good lighting can change an animated movie.

The artist's shots clearly show how important lighting is to create mood, depth, atmosphere, and realism in every scene we see in the animated movies. While we often see lighting as the final touch given to the movies but actually the complete movie comes to life only when it is illuminated.
The actual aim of the lighting artists is to enhance the work of other artists who work for the movie to create a natural lit sequence that will allow the audience to relate to the story and its atmosphere.
