Advanced Animation: Narrative Animation

Researching into Narrative Animation it seems to be a very interesting field to work in, as it tries to capture the audience through the use of character expressions and poses rather than have them speak. I found the "Paper Man" (short film by Disney) A really amazing Narrative for its use of character's. There are other narratives Which tell the story for the viewer and also uses a combination of interesting characters to convey the story. Here is a numeber of videos I watched to help me understand what narrative Animation is.
