Animating is a very slow, pain-staking process and the animators become the actors at that point.

Sometimes if the people are up for trying something that I'm interested in, it can be a great experience.

There's no story if there isn't some conflict. The memorable things are usually not how pulled together everybody is. I think everybody feels lonely and trapped sometimes. I would think it's more or less the norm.

One of the things I enjoyed the most is just working as an actor.

What happened to your hand? It got hit by a mirror. How'd that happen? I lost my temper at myself.

Mostly with commercial work, it isn't about personal vision. It's not a personal effort, it's work for hire. That's more my attitude with those. You just want to be a professional worker.

Do you know how writers often say the characters take over... But that is more or less what it always feels like to me, too. Even though that's just a way of describing how your brain is working, it's still what you tend to feel.
