Pre-production involves establishing the plot of the completed animation.  Because each shot in animation is so labor-intensive, it's imperative to get every shot right during pre-production.  Re-animating a shot (because a character uses knowledge not gained until later in the story, for example) is very expensive, especially compared to live-action filming.
