Internet movie database says that your recent film was a short called "gift of the hoopoe" the poster credits mentions motion capture. if you are at liberty can you tell us if the film is a blend of both 2d and motion capture and the genises of the project?

Don, I'm planning out a shot that i want to go from a view of a bird in flight to a birds eye view of the ground. The bird will then go down to the ground and land by a young girl. Is it possible in traditional animation to achieve this type of camera shot where we go from a height down to ground level? Any advice would be great.

Hey when you create a character for a film... do you create a character bible for that character ( such as details of the character) or is that a TV animation thing only? What details would you put in a show bible?

When I'm discussing character based films with my live action friends, obviously animated films dont come up too often..but instead films like Pulp fiction and american graffitti pop up more often than not. However, do you think that i'm far off the mark by saying that the Jungle book is a very character based film that is moved by the characters and not the plot?

and i'm also far off the mark that its one of the most dialouge heavy disney animated films?
