silent animation
"I’m extremely dissatisfied with the animations. But the only way to cling onto my sanity is to say that they
show my ideas...my stories, conceptual designs and cinematography. I look at films like 2001 and Alien
that use model miniatures as being the way I want to see these redone...and so I see these now, my animations,
as animatics...a sort of presentation of my idea."
