“Japanese animation tends to need high budgets. If I have a high budget for a movie, I usually make animation, but if the project has a low budget, then I would ask the producer to consider live action.” IfsNeedsActionAsksProjectsLowsProducersBudgetsAnimationJapanese Animation Author:Mamoru Oshii
“I do have more directorial control over animation, because it's like trial and error: If something doesn't work, you can always go back and change certain things. Whereas in live action, every day is a challenge, and you have to make decisions on an hourly basis. So in live action I have more freedom as a director, but in animation, I have more control over the final product.” IfsActionCertainChallengesDecisionProductsDirectorsBasesErrorsFinalsTrialsAnimationTrial And Error Author:Mamoru Oshii
