Negotiating with Disney isn't like good cop/bad cop; it's like bad cop/Antichrist.

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.

Im very happy with the success of short films. In fact, for me, the short films make more money than the features.

People used to want to be filmmakers and animators; now they want to make apps.

Animation can be a full spectrum of different storytelling techniques and different genres. I think it's sad that there is only one audience that the studios are aiming for and that's the kid audience. It's really tragic that they don't' make films for older people.

America is behind Europe and Japan in terms of accepting adult ideas in animation.
