For me, part of the fascination with making animation is you go to a place; it's a complete immersion in someone else's fantasy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What I love most about animation is, it's a team sport, and everything we do is about pure imagination.
I love to get involved with projects that take me out of my comfort zone. I try to do things that are not necessarily what I'm used to. I always wanted to do a big animation movie and stick to the codes that this genre sometimes implies.
I think it reflects well on the state of animation that people are knowledgeable about it and love the fantasy and imagination that goes into it.
I don't dislike the process of animation... I find it daunting, but only as much as I find everything daunting.
I'm a huge fan of animation, and just the arts in general - anything that emanates from someone's mind and soul and is capable of touching other people's minds and souls.
Animation is the only thing I ever wanted to do in my whole life. I have no desire for live-action or anything else.
I'm a big fan of pantomime storytelling, being an animator.
I love animated movies in general. I like making them.
So I like to try to go back and develop pure visual storytelling. Because to me, it's one of the most exciting aspects of making movies and almost a lost art at this point.
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.
