“I found this very interesting, especially the technology of the live dancers jumping behind the screen, and then coming into the animation. And I noticed that the art director has a patent on that technology.”
“It’s an interesting idea. I’m from the business, and I love Fantasia, and all the old Disney classics, and the way the audience is brought into the experience, combining live dance with imagery is a great idea.”
“The timing was perfect.”
“I’m a filmmaker, so I look at this through a filmmaker’s eyes. Very nice, very nice. ... I was very surprised. No, I wasn’t bored. I liked it, and I’ve worked with Chinese animators before.”
“They’re all based on legends, and some of it is political, and I can see why you couldn’t do this in China, because of the communist regime. So I learned some things. It takes the legend into the next level.”
