![]() Then the next time we see it, it’s finished, in color as a work print. I tried explaining it without getting too nerdy in the weeds of it all is basically in the old TV version, like the “Dexter’s Lab” version or even “Samurai Jack” in the beginning, we do the storyboard, we do the designs, we make a blueprint, and we put it in a box, and we send it to Korea in those days. You’ve said that “Primal” is closer to feature animation. Netflix Shuffles Film Animation Executive Team After Animal Logic Acquisition The good thing about being in the industry so long, you’ve worked with almost everybody to a point. And it’s everybody that I’ve worked with for awhile, even the newer people coming in. It’s the most hands-off they’ve ever been and supportive, and there’s a trust and understanding between us. After doing so much, I think I’ve earned their trust and respect. And by this point, if people don’t trust me, then I shouldn’t be working with you. It’s pretty simple once I have the trust of the executives in the studio.

But we felt that the audience can get there. We decided to make things more complex and sometimes a little bit headier, still in the same style and execution that we’ve been doing.
