“So it was a win-win all the way around. It was an amazing moment, not only for myself and the team behind the film, but for DTS and for John Lasseter. He was always a big fan. He was a proponent, a supporter of the whole thing, and it just worked out.”

“After that really, I spent the majority of the spring going to tons and tons of regional festivals throughout America.
