i used to think that a lot of talk about composition is over analyzed. I put in a lot of work the last few years to learn painting and drawing, and I am now at a (very amateurish) level where what I actually focus on and consciously work on is at that "triangular composition", "color palette", "contrast" level of thinking. The rest really just pales. It's the job of so many people on an animated movie production to figure these out just right: storyboard, then set design, light design, color design, camera animation. Each of these is an individual job (often filled with multiple artists).
