Murch QCQ

"As with all digital non-linear editing, its greatest strength is also its greatest weakness... It gives you what you say you want, but that may not be what you need.This is what is exciting about doing hand animation because it restricts you to techniques that you are familiar with, just like editing film and optical printing mixed.would digital animation have a similar weakness to animation?

"I think every age has a medium that talks to it more eloquently than the others. In the 19th century it was symphonic music and the novel. For various technical and artistic reasons, film became that eloquent medium for the 20th century.
"Interesting idea about the progress of media.What would the 21st century's medium be, YouTube?

"Your job is partly to anticipate, partly to control the thought processes of the audience. To give them what they want and/or what they need just before they have to 'ask' for it -- to be surprising yet self-evident at the same time. If you are too far behind or ahead of them, you cause problems, but if you are right with them, leading them ever so slightly, the flow of events feels natural and exciting at the same time"Seems vital to setting up punch lines for jokes and filling the time in between so that its not boring and keeps a good pace.How diverse of an audience should we expect to anticipate?
