I think my parents gave me a love of learning; from there you set out on your own path.

Animated films are so precisely engineered - right down to forming lines of dialogue with words pulled from several different takes - how do you translate that spontaneity from the live-action to the digital realm?

My respect for animators and animation directors has gone way, way up and it is just not something you can phone in.

I always wanted to do an animated movie. I find it to be incredibly liberating as a way of telling a story.

For me, some of the happiest moments on a live-action film are the awkward moments. One actor says something to another actor. They didn't expect that performance from that actor; that affects their return performance.

It's a mistake for Hollywood to impose themselves on the gaming space. Not only is it arrogant, but it hasn't really worked.

The curse is an incredible set of blue balls.
