ï I realized I wanted to
be in animation when I saw:
ÖDaffy blown up and blackened w/beak turned around. Then completely
unhurt in the following scene. Aha! Immortality.
ï When I was a kid I:
a) drew everything
b) made my own comicbook
c) animated with my parents' stopframe Super 8 camera (mainly
of dinosaurs)
d) organized other kids in the neighborhood
e) spent too much time in my room
f) ALL OF THE ABOVE other (please elaborate): made up perverse
lyrics to the "I'm Goin' Koo Koo" song.
ï My parents wanted me to be:
Önot homeless
ï My first job (of any kind) was:
Öat a car wash for (almost)
one day. Accidentally ripped a customers front fender off.
ï My first big break in animation was:
Öscoring John R. Dilworth's
first Noodles & Nedd short in '95 or '96.
ï My career in animation is most influenced by:
ÖCarl Stalling and 1940's
WB cartoons in general and Stanley Kubrick.
ï I'm most proud of:
Örecently: Courage
the Cowardly Dog episodes " The Tower Of Dr. Zalost," "Human
Habitrail," and "The Ride Of the Valkyries."
ï One thing I would change about the animation business
is:
Öhire more orchestras
and then hire me to write 'n conduct for them.
ï The animated character I'm most like is:
ÖPepe Le Pew: "Romantic
and Oblivious"
ï What I'd like to be doing in 10 years:
Öthe same only more so.
And for lots more money.
