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 grew up camping with my family. We took so many trips. We had an RV, actually, when we were growing up. We did a ton of camping trips and went across the country.

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

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.

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

Vibrations are the key to everything. Atoms used to be, but atoms have quite gone out.

The idea of licking stamps seemed great fun for me.

The West may collapse very suddenly. Complex civilizations do that, because they operate, most of the time, on the edge of chaos.

I did not want to write, but I had to resign myself to it in the end.
