Take a film of Jacques Tati like Mon Oncle which has something quite new - for me, unique - in it.

Unless it's done superbly, as in the Japanese film Gate of Hell, color can be a very distracting element.

I have tried to preserve in my relationship to the film the same closeness and intimacy that exists between a painter and his canvas.

Animation is not the art of drawings that move but the art of movements that are drawn.
