“[Music video] is always changing, it makes an exciting and vibrant media form to study and analyze, raising interesting questions about representation, media language, institutions, and audiences--the four key concepts of media studies. Music video has also had considerable influence formally and stylistically upon a range of other media and cultural artifacts globally.” –Peter Fraser

"Experimental animation is closer to music, which can move away from any obvious image, and gives us an experience that can only be the property of music.  In my work, movement in itself is the expression that gives us both an aesthetic and an emotional experience.  I have chosen to convey ideas and feelings through movement, visually formed by lines, squares, spots, circles and varieties of colour." –Jules Engel, Experimental Animator

"I think my imagination dictates the technologies I use. But at the same time, my imagination can be technologic. Sometimes I see a tool and I know immediately how to use it, but most of the time I use the tool for an idea I already have.

When people are very original, sometimes they are original as a way to resist the mainstream." -Michel Gondry, Director
