Now, how can an inanimate object, lacking any identifiable features, convey an expression, such as joy and grief, that can tug a string or two of the audience? They have all the faculties that humans are endowed with - expressive eyes and facial contortions - that can instantly convey an emotion. Next in line to throw the gauntlet at the poor lifeless things - with the action part taken care of, what about the emotion? This is the chief reason why animals greatly succeed at replacing humans in the animation world. There, a blueprint was drawn up in regard to the behavior of the inanimate objects, when interacting with the live world.

It is a comedy segment, obviously, and therefore much of the emphasis is on the comic action of the broom stick, who tries desparately to keep things in order, but fails every time in a grand fashion, earning great jeer from the sorcerer and great cheer from the audience. Here the entire segment is between the sorcerer and his apprentice, a broom stick, who often goofs up things and is subjected to the ire of his master in the process. Walt Disney showed the way in the ground-breaking animation, for its time, in 'The Sorcerer's apprentice'. But they still need a living and a breathing entity to bounce off their actions and translate it into emotions - be it happiness, pain or sorrow. How can the audience be tricked into believing and even start rooting for inanimate objects? Lifeless objects communicate through their actions.

Here is the challenge - even if it is in the animation realm, where animals talk and behave like humans, and stories woven around them are allegorical enough to reflect the morals, values, beliefs and the ethics of the humans.
