I like John Stevenson's work very much because the storyline and the characters of his movie are very attractive. John Stevenson is a very talented director. His work includes Gong Fu Panda which is a great animation movie. He put lot of Chinese traditional culture in this movie and use the traditional Chinese animal--panda as the main character. He thinks a good storyline is extremely important for an animation movie. It is even more important than the design of the character or the level of rendering.
John Stevenson said he has not seen the real panda in real life yet but he could able to model the characters in the movie very correctly. Before he started modeling the panda he has watched a lot of Chinese traditional cartoons and book to learn the real culture. It is a very effective way to decide the appearance of the characters.
My choice of sequence from the script will be decide the storyline first and try to find helpful information for the story in order to learn and understand the culture behind the story. Start modeling the character from the learning experience at the last.
