The lighting changes were definitely the biggest thing and the biggest reason that people don't shoot stop motion outdoors.

Having animation as this time-based medium made a lot of sense for me, and then stop motion was even more fun because it was so hands-on and physical in a way that I really liked.

I was always really fascinated with animation, but just in a way all kids are with watching Disney movies and all that, but I had no idea how animation was done.

I was one of those kids that always drew all the time.

I feel like there's a lot of drama in weather. It's something that's done really often in live action, so I figure, why not translate that to animation?

I really like incorporating elements, and it's also difficult to do in stop motion, which means sometimes I run into problems.
