My Mother Was A High School Arts

Animation, For Me, Is A Wonderful Art Form. I Never Understood Why The Studios Wanted To Stop Making Animation. Maybe They Felt That The Audiences Around The World Only Wanted To Watch Computer Animation. I Didn't Understand That, Because I Don't Think Ever In The History Of Cinema Did The Medium Of A Film Make That Film Entertaining Or Not. What I've Always Felt Is, What Audiences Like To Watch Are Really Good Movies.

I Realized That People Make Cartoons For A Living. It Had Never Dawned On Me That You Could Do This As A Career.

Every Technology That Comes Into Filmmaking Is First A Gimmick. Think About Sound With 'the Jazz Singer' Or The First Colour Or Surround Sound - It Takes A While For Filmmakers To Understand How To Use It.

It’s So Important To Create In Your Own Voice, To Hold Onto What Makes You Unique, And Have Faith In Your Vision.

Walt Disney Had Always Tried To Get More Dimension In His Animation And When I Saw These Tapes, I Thought, This Is It! This Is What Walt Was Waiting For! But When I Looked Around, Nobody At The Studio At The Time Was Even Halfway Interested In It.
