In computer animation, every detail has to be thought out, designed, modeled, shaded, placed and lit. The more you add, the more computer memory you need.

Your voice is worthwhile. Have faith in it.

This is what I always tell my filmmakers-you have to do tons of research, because you don't know where the inspiration is going come from.

Every animator is really an actor performing in slow motion, living the character a drawing at a time.

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.

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

Humor is the easiest to achieve; the 'heart' is always the toughest, because you can't tell people to feel a certain way.
