#015 | The Peculiar Super Powers of Animation with J. Chris Wall

The story is every medium has its unique strengths: Sculpture is different from painting; poetry from prose; ballet from theater. One is not better than the other, but its unique characteristics make it suited for certain kinds of experiences, messages, or audiences. So what are the unique strengths of animated film, as opposed to, say, live action? Today we discuss: “The Peculiar Super Powers (and Weaknesses?) of Animation.”

J. Chris Wall is an American creator of kids-and-family, redemptive content.
