I got to animate a lot on the Samurai Jack shows because I had to do stuff that was more complex, or fix retakes. I’m an animator at heart and it drives me. I got TVPaint, I can animate digitally so it’s all quicker now than on paper. I’ll do a run cycle with Jack and I’ll play it and yeah, that feels so good. Then I’ll send it to Scott and he flips out over it. It’s still exactly the same as it was in the 1940s…it’s funny how that’s never changed. Animation has never changed. James Baxter helped us out with some cycles for this one episode and his stuff, we watched it, it was like, my god, that’s just incredible. You get that feeling. I don’t know about anybody else but to me it’s a connection to my childhood and my love of animation. It’s never gone away.
