I would say the three stages of making a film are the initial 'are we gonna do this,' 'how much will I be paid,' is there a lot of nights, who's it going to be with? The second stage of doing a film is how much fun your going to have doing it. The third stage is was the film a hit?
Steve MartinSo much emotion can be brought in an animated film that's very hard to get in a live-action film. I haven't quite put my finger on why, but it might be because the characters can make facial expression that, if you made them in a movie, they'd call them corny.
Steve MartinWhen people ask me, โhow do you make it in show business,โ or whatever, what I always tell them โ and nobody ever takes note of it โcuz itโs not the answer they wanted to hearโฆbut I always say, โBe so good they canโt ignore you.โ
