Very few people have made the transition from animation to live-action; I'm certainly not one.

I want to be an animated character. I'm also doing more writing and directing.

Animation is the only thing I ever wanted to do in my whole life. I have no desire for live-action or anything else.

Animation is about creating the illusion of life. And you can't create it if you don't have one.

I'm just a character actor.

I am an animator. I feel like I'm the manager of a animation cinema factory. I am not an executive. I'm rather like a foreman, like the boss of a team of craftsmen. That is the spirit of how I work.

I'm not an actress who can create a character. I play me.

The thing that I enjoy about animation is the fact that it is unbridled, and there are no boundaries; when you are in the room, you don't have to focus on your clothing, make-up, hair, your choreography or your blocking; you really do have total freedom.

I played this character twice in live action, and now I've become an animated character. It was actually fun to see myself drawn - I've never been a drawn character before.
