Correct Answer: animator


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

An animator is a person who creates animations, bringing characters and scenes to life through the use of moving images. In this context, an "animator" is the person involved in creating animated content, aligning with the description of Disney's role in the mid-1920s.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • An artisan is a skilled worker, often in a craft or trade.
  • A craftsman is a skilled worker in a particular craft or trade, but it doesn't capture the specific role related to animation.
  • A miniature artist is an artist or craftsman who specialises in creating miniature versions of objects.

Therefore, the correct answer is animator.
