(please pardon the copy of the auto-transcribe)

It concludes with:

> in the entertainment industry the animation industry the expressiveness the ability to create new films and new ideas has exploded and as an end result has created actually more jobs and budgets have actually gone up if you look at the budgets now compared to what they were back in the 90s they're doubled

> ...

> it's something that people want to go to and laugh and cry and be scared and be moved and and learn something from those are the things that people are going to go and watch and um if you can do that then the technology will follow the technology will create new jobs I'll guarantee you I've seen it happen I've been I've been doing this for 35 years and I've seen it happen I've gone through it a couple of times

> so at the end of the day do I think it's a threat? No I don't think it's a threat I think it's exciting I think it's really exciting so I'm just going to sit here I'm going to sit here and continue drawing on my hand-drawn animated short snow bear and I want you to go out embrace the technology embrace the things that are new see how you can express yourselves through them put some beauty back into the world and I'll talk to you next time thanks
