Igrewuponasteadydietofsciencefiction.Inhighschool,Itookabustoschoolanhoureachwayeveryday.AndIwasalwaysabsorbedinabook,sciencefictionbook,whichtookmymindtootherworlds,andsatisfied,inanarrativeform,thisinsatiablesenseofcuriositythatIhad.
Andyouknow,thatcuriosityalsomanifesteditselfinthefactthatwheneverIwasn'

--frogsandsnakesandbugsandpondwater--andbringingitback,lookingatitunderthemicroscope.Youknow,Iwasarealsciencegeek.Butitwasallabouttryingtounderstandtheworld,understandthelimitsofpossibility.
Andmyloveofsciencefictionactuallyseemedmirroredintheworldaroundme,becausewhatwashappening,thiswasinthelate'
60s,weweregoingtothemoon,wewereexploringthedeepoceans.JacquesCousteauwascomingintoourlivingroomswithhisamazingspecialsthatshowedusanimalsandplacesandawondrousworldthatwecouldneverreallyhavepreviouslyimagined.So,thatseemedtoresonatewiththewholesciencefictionpartofit.
AndIwasanartist.Icoulddraw.Icouldpaint.AndIfoundthatbecausethereweren'

Andaninterestingthinghappened:
TheJacquesCousteaushowsactuallygotmeveryexcitedaboutthefactthattherewasanalienworldrighthereonEarth.Imightnotreallygotoanalienworldonaspaceshipsomeday--thatseemedprettydarnunlikely.ButthatwasaworldIcouldreallygoto,righthereonEarth,thatwasasrichandexoticasanythingthatIhadimaginedfromreadingthesebooks.
So,IdecidedIwasgoingtobecomeascubadiverattheageof

Sincethen,intheintervening40years,I'

ButwhenIchoseacareerasanadult,itwasfilmmaking.AndthatseemedtobethebestwaytoreconcilethisurgeIhadtotellstorieswithmyurgestocreateimages.AndIwas,asakid,constantlydrawingcomicbooks,andsoon.So,filmmakingwasthewaytoputpicturesandstoriestogether,andthatmadesense.AndofcoursethestoriesthatIchosetotellweresciencefictionstories:
"

and"

Andwith"

Iwasputtingtogethermyloveofunderwateranddivingwithfilmmaking.So,youknow,mergingthetwopassions.
Somethinginterestingcameoutof"
whichwasthattosolveaspecificnarrativeproblemonthatfilm,whichwastocreatethiskindofliquidwatercreature,weactuallyembracedcomputergeneratedanimation,CG.Andthisresultedinthefirstsoft-surfacecharacter,CGanimationthatwaseverinamovie.Andeventhoughthefilmdidn'

So,with"
