I've got Disney blood running through my veins.

I've got Disney blood running through my veins.

I'm the biggest fan of animation. I love the history of animation, I know it well.

In dire economic times, movies are relatively inexpensive entertainment for the whole family.

I believe in the nobility of entertaining people and I take great, great pride that people are willing to give me two or three hours of their busy lives.

I've always loved animation it's the reason why I do what I do for a living - the films of Walt Disney. This art form is so spectacular and beautiful. And I never quite understood the feeling amongst animation studios that audiences today only wanted to see computer animation. It's never about the medium that a film is made in, it's about the story. It's about how good the movie is.

It’s so important to create in your own voice, to hold onto what makes you unique, and have faith in your vision.
