My style is very strong poses and expressions.
Not very many people can draw who are illustrators today.
One guy records the voices, another guy times the storyboard, another guy times the sheets, one guy is the story editor. All these jobs should be covered by the director.
My intended audience was everybody. I just want to make cartoons for human beings.
If you're a kid wanting to be a cartoonist today, and you're looking at Family Guy, you don't have to aim very high.
The only character I ever remember actually creating in a flash of inspiration was George Liquor. God planted that in my head in an instant.
The generic Canadian style of illustration is different from the generic American style.
The storyboard department doesn't talk to the layout department, which doesn't talk to the writing department. They're all jealous of each other.
There's tons of people with talent; it's the system that's all screwed up.
To make something look real and alive, nothing can be symmetrical because nothing in real life is symmetrical. You have to make it look organic.
You buy any book on color theory today, and it's just complete poppycock. Everybody comes out of school painting pink, purple and green. The whole damn cartoon industry has pink purple and green on their mind.
You can draw Family Guy when you're 10 years old. You don't have to get any better than that to become a professional cartoonist. The standards are extremely low.
Schools are really bad now. Schools are not only bad in reading, writing and arithmetic, they're worse in cultural aspects, like in music and art. They don't teach you anything.
