I enjoyed it. Funny and snarky with a legitimate warning about too much automation.
Wonderful! Janet reminds me a little of the actress Nancy Marchand.
Many questions! What was your involvement like? It was an odd time, so I assume you were not able to visit, but did you get to talk to the director, actors, animators? Did you get previews of the work as it went along? Did they ask if the imagery was what you envisioned? Was it as incredibly fun as I would automatically assume it was? It has to be an incredible experience to see you words come to life on the screen in such a dynamic and exciting format.
John, speaking of Meat Dept, have you seen their deranged & hilarious animation about a NASA mission to Mars? If you haven’t, you NEED to check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gSOWPz0J1k
Thanks for noting the errata.
OOPS, that ‘errata’ comment should have gone to a different video. My bad.
