I can only think of Pixar's 'story is everything' speeches, which after a while sound repetitive and don't really seem to mean anything. <br /><br />However, your posts, in addition to your writing which is really fun to read, seem to stem from a place much closer to the actual work. You seem to write from the passion that drives your work, instead of writing to, say, sound instructional or making it sound like a sales pitch. <br /><br />My point is, I really appreciate the sincerity and authenticity behind your writing. When everything else sounds like a press statement, a few genuine words really help to inspire my interest in animation again. <br /><br />Thank you for adding a little helping of honesty to the cold, often heartless place that is the internet. I look forward to future posts :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
