“Petrov inspired me to be like Sherlock Holmes on my own work – to find the problems and question them so I do not put not too much energy on a scene that I don’t need.”

Where she calls home: Montreal, Canada

Favored techniques: Oil on glass

Fluid frame films: Black Soul (2000), MacPherson (2012)

ProTip: From Petrov, I learned to question my animation: “Why is this this scene so important? What is this thing that you shouldn’t have moved because it’s not working or it’s not important?” He inspired me to be like Sherlock Holmes on my own work – to find the problems and question them so I do not put not too much energy on a scene that I don’t need.
