This image (taken straight from the presentation) really does fully explain illustration in the simplest way. Illustration is an important aspect of animation, perhaps even the most important one, because it gives the audience a unique interpretation of whatever story is being told, and how the world and the characters are illustrated can have an effect on how the audiences relate to the characters. The examples of good illustration in the presentation were all fantastic and inspiring. They are not always visually pleasing but it depends on the illustrators' interpretations on the message they are trying to convey. When Image is placed alongside Concept and Context, then it doesn't matter if it looks pretty, it just has to work with whatever message the illustrator is trying to convey.
