Gives a face to voiceovers, but not much else

It's nice to be able to see all the actors and actresses as they give voices to the animated characters, but isn't there more they could tell us? Indeed, the second DVD includes a piece describing the voiceover process in much more detail. In short, this is a glamorous but fluffy addition to the first DVD that should've been interlaced with the second DVD feature, not stood alone in it's own 15 minutes segment.
