Miyazaki's Films In Japan Are Bigger Than

I Get Rewarded Virtually Every Day With Something Amazing To See - Whether It's A New Shot, A Miniature Sweater, Someone Who's Figured Out How To Make The Hair Look Really Great. We Found A Way To Do The Rain, Finally. And Mud. Make The Trees. So I Get To Stay In Constant Motion As A Director, You Know, Reviewing Things. And There's A Lot To Review.

I Love All Sorts Of Animation, Probably The Most Beautiful Would Be The Tradtional Hand Drawn Animation That Disney Is Known For. Stop-motion Has A Certain "grittieness" And Is Filled With Imperfections, And Yet Their Is An Undeniable Truth, That What You See Really Exits, Even It If Is Posed By Hand, 24 Times A Second. This Truth Is What I Find Most Attractive About Stop-motion Animation.

I Feel I'm Just Meant To Do Stop-motion. Live-action Is Much More Glamorous To Some, But It's Basically A Whole Army Of People Focused On One Thing.

Every Kid Has A Toy That They Believe Is Their Best Friend, That They Believe Communicates With Them, And They Imagine It Being Alive, Their Toy Horse Or Car Or Whatever It Is. Stop-motion Is The Only Medium Where We Literally Can Make A Toy Come To Life, An Actual Object.

Miyazaki's Films In Japan Are Bigger Than Titanic. He's An Incredible Rock Star There. In The Us, They Don't Do As Well.
