I'm such a huge fan of stop motion, most especially your work! I watched Moral Orel from beginning to end and enjoyed every frame, and Frankenhole makes me so happy with all the monsters, horror, and fantastic writing. When I heard about Anomalisa I almost died, I pledged way more than I had available at the time and have saved up to afford it. I wanted every single perk, but more important to me is being part of your project, which I appreciate so much. I love that it is funded by us: the ones who want to see it happen, and with so many incredible talents involved, I have full faith that this will be an amazing work of art.
Getting on with it, I'd like to know how you got into stop motion to begin with, and if you have any advice for someone passionate but just getting started. I only get to learn and work on creating animations in my spare "experimental" time, which isn't as often as I'd like. Also, how did you meet/find your animators?
Thanks so much for doing this AMA and taking the time to respond, even if you don't get to my question. I appreciate you and your work, you are a huge inspiration to me, and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be "heard".
