Director Statement

I like for my work to have a healthy balance of meaning but also to abide by the the rule of cool and weird; if something sounds interesting or looks awesome, is there a way to seamlessly add it. I distinctly remember first describing the idea for Stylite to my advisers, "Ok so theirs this girl right, and she lives on the side of a vertical endless canyon with poison smoke at the bottom. She's sick and flying around on a glider till she flies through this giant worm where this creature attached to the worm attacks her like a white blood cell." That's really weird, that's the power of animation, and we need more of it.
