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

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.

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?

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.

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

Try not to turn your mind into your worst enemy of progress.

When life gives you the gift of a great story, to not partake in the telling of that story would be a crime against humanity.

Live for yourself. Love those around you - but realise they have their own agendas.

When we become captive to the Word of God, then we discover true freedom.

Open your eyes and see what you can with them before they close forever.

A free society, to be truly worthy of that name, owes healthy, competent individuals the right to end their lives on their own terms.

Endings are beginnings-if we allow them to be.

People are more open to receive something from you when they're already interested in what you're doing.

To many men much-wandering hope comes as a boon, but to many others it is the deception of vain desires.

Youth should be radical. Youth should demand change in the world. Youth should not accept the old order if the world is to move on.
